Singapore - IMG has renewed its agreement to provide full golf course management services to Jinji Lake Golf Club, the award winning private club in Suzhou, China. This new agreement is a continuation of IMG’s involvement at Jinji Lake dating back to 2004.

Located in the Suzhou Industrial Park in Jiangsu Province, the 27 hole Gary Player design is recognized as one of the country’s leading layouts. Offering three distinct 9 hole experiences, including floodlit golf, the championship golf course provides variety and enjoyment for players of all skill levels. With an expansive clubhouse, great dining and world class practice facilities, very few clubs can match the outstanding amenities at Jinji Lake.

“IMG and Jinji Lake have a strong relationship going back to the days of pre-opening, and we are delighted to announce an extension to our agreement to provide full golf course management services to this prestigious private club” said Paul Burley, Vice President, IMG Golf Course Services. “We look forward to many more years of success and to consolidating Jinji Lake’s position as one of China’s premier private clubs”.

Known for its world class golf experience and course conditioning, the club is regarded as a benchmark facility in China. Venue for the Volvo China Open in 2010, Jinji Lake’s high standards for service and quality, coupled with innovative sales and marketing have established it’s reputation on the international stage.

“IMG’s experience in managing high end clubs in China is unique with an outstanding portfolio of 12 leading facilities. Having the opportunity to continue to deliver our management services at such a high profile club is very pleasing” added Burley.
