Golf in Thailand

Golf is one of the most popular sports activities in Thailand, which attracts players from all around the world. The game arrived in the country a century ago and was quickly taken up by the elite and the fashionable. Among the first sponsors of the game were the armed forces and government institutions, which built and continue to own some of the finest courses in the country.


There are over 200 high standard golf courses nationwide, many of them championship standards. The world’s top designers have made a significant contribution. Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo, Gary Player Greg Norman, Robert Trent Jones Jr, Pete Dey and many others have perfected modern layouts, using the best grasses and latest techniques. The result is some of the most attractive courses in Asia, with excellent facilities, memorable signature holes and regular maintenance to keep them in top-class condition.


Most of the newer courses offer accommodation on site or nearby, plus recreational facilities for the whole family. Greens fees continue to be very reasonable, as well as the fees for caddies.


Every course has its caddies; it's compulsory to employ one caddie for your round. These brightly clad ladies, in smart uniforms and hats, know lots about the course, smile almost all the time and are very good to coach you when playing. But don’t forget to give your caddy a tip, normally from 200 up to 400 bath depending on which course you are playing and your satisfaction.
