Golf course or teeing ground?

Shanghai - Two golf courses covering nearly 66 hectares are being built on protected wetland in Yangzhou city of East China's Jiangsu province, despite the central government's ban on using land for golf courses.

An 18-hole golf course named Sun Island, located in Runyang Wetland Park of Guazhou town, will open on May 28, the 21st Century Business Herald reported on Thursday.

An official with the Yangzhou tourism bureau reportedly told local media that Sun Island is a standard golf course.
