Dear Fellow Hickory Golfers:
We are pleased to announce that the 3rd China Hickory Open Championship will be played on November 16-18, 2026 at the Jockey Club KSC Public Golf Course in Hong Kong.
The Inaugural China Hickory Open and the 2nd China Hickory Open were successfully held on November 11-12, 2024 and November 11-12, 2025, respectively, at the Hidden Grace Golf Club in Shenzhen and Mission Hills Golf Club in Haikou, Hainan. Organized by the Hidden Grace Golf Museum, China’s first and only golf museum approved by the government and the Society of China Hickory Golfers, the first two Open Championships initiated an annual international hickory open tournament in China, a unique golf event to promote the history and culture of modern golf. The first two events were participated by more than 120 players from China and around the world. Overseas players (including four professionals) came from Australia, Switzerland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Netherland, U.K., Hungary, France and the U.S. The youngest hickory golfer was 11-year-old and the oldest 82. Paolo Quirici, two-time China Hickory Open champion from Switzerland said: “The first China Hickory Open is in the books. If you missed the inaugural event, you have most definitely missed out on the most impressive and well-organized hickory event I have ever had the chance to attend and play so far in my 12 years as a hickory player!”
A national competition will be added this year on November 16. The winning national team, or the best gross scores of two players from a participating country, will be awarded a National Team Champion trophy, a 130-year-old China Export Silver bowl. On behalf of the organizing committee, we warmly welcome fellow hickory brothers & sisters from China and around the world to play at the 2026 3rd China Hickory Open at China’s only municipal public golf course in Hong Kong!
Wayne Xing, Director, Hidden Grace Golf Museum; President, Society of China Hickory Golfers
