Mission Hills, Shenzhen, China, the largest golf club in the world as acknowledged by Guinness Records, with twelve championship courses each designed and named after twelve world famous golf major champions and celebrities has produced as far as golf presentation boxes go, one that is on a completely different level of sophistication and elegance. 

Following in the tradition of the world famous early Dunlop 65 and other select premium ball manufacturers, the Mission Hills presentation box has been designed as a book but also includes colourful golfing Chinese artwork on the front cover (which closes shut magnetically !), the back cover and the spine. The book has been made large enough not only for the twelve balls that it contains, but also to include in its centre a large round and heavy medal proudly proclaiming the Mission Hills name. On the inside of the front cover when the box is opened can be seen twelve autographed brightly coloured pictures of the twelve golf celebrities with their national flag in the background.

Now about the golf balls, several pictures of which have been necessarily included. In the later pictures it can be seen that all balls have Mission Hills Golf Club printed on them in black in both English and Chinese, and either a number 1, 2 or 6 in red on one side.  Whether there is any significance in this is unclear but all four number 1 balls are arranged along the top, all four number 2 balls are arranged along the bottom and two of each of the four number 6 balls are arranged along the sides. A further picture is included showing both the ball number and the celebrity in such arrangement.

Further pictures then show in a black ink, the hand written signatures which all appear authentic 

- of the 8 golf major champions -  Jack Nicklaus  (American) / Nick Faldo (English) / Ernie Els (South African) / Greg Norman (Australian) / Vijay Singh (Fijian) / Jose Maria Olazabal (Spanish) / David Duval (American) / Annika Sorenstam (Swedish)
