| Phuket Country Club, established in 1989, is the first and one of the finest golf courses built in Phuket, and lies on a reclaimed tin mine site. The stunning beauty and elegance of the course, together with the typical Thai charm and hospitality will make your golfing joyful and memorable. The course provides a challenge for golfers of all levels. Host to the Ladies Kosaido Thailand Open 1992 and Prince Bernard Cup tournaments, the club offers two courses with 27 holes. Voted "Best Course in Thailand" by Asian Golf Magazine 2001 and "Best Holes Par-Five" by Asian Golf Magazine 2001 (Hole #10.)
Golf Course Summary: The OLD COURSE provides a strenuous 18-hole, 6483 yards, par 72 golf game. Hole #10, 557 yards par 5, is one of the most unusual holes you will find anywhere; a dog-leg right that snakes around an enormous lake and is reachable in one! Set in a valley, with fairways meandering through the hills, the course offers six holes in undulating hills, six holes on the level and six holes through landscaped forest. Although high handicappers have the best round of their lives and keep coming back for more, the low handicap golfers still find the course quite a challenge. The COUNTRY CLUB COURSE is a challenging 3575 yards (championship tee) par 37, 9-hole course, particularly suitable for the low handicap golfer. The picturesque beauty of the scenery and layout, somewhat softens the difficulty of the course. Watch out for those wayward shots; all are penalized either landing in water or out-of-bounds. However, with five tee-off boxes at each hole, you have a choice of making it less of an ordeal. The distinctive feature is water which comes into play 80% of the time. (Hint: high handicap golfers, remember to purchase a few dozen second hand balls from the Pro Shop before tee off! You may need a few!)
