Chongqing, China

The final 18 holes at the Poly Chongqing Golf Club present the ultimate test of endurance and mountain-golf strategy. The primary challenge of the "North Course" remains its dramatic verticality, where wind tunnels through the valley can make club selection on the final stretch nearly impossible. The objective for the leaders is to navigate the closing "Eagle Course" loop without a dropped shot, specifically surviving the narrow par-4 16th and the reachable, yet water-guarded, par-5 18th. Strategically, the goal for the final pairings is to maintain a conservative approach off the tee, prioritizing fairway position over distance on the technical front nine. The tactical focus for the chasers is to exploit the par-5 5th and 7th holes early to bridge the gap before the greens firm up in the afternoon sun. With the first title of the mountain swing and vital China Tour Order of Merit points on the line, the ultimate goal is to remain composed through the elevation changes and secure a career-defining victory in the "8D City."
