Vietnam Golf &
Country Club is the first 36-hole golf club in Vietnam
and is widely regarded as Vietnam’s Premier Golf and
Country Club.
Located just 20 kilometres from the
centre of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam Golf and Country
Club is also the nearest golf club to the
city.
Set amongst 300 hectares of land, two great
golf courses have been carved out of the existing
woodland with minimal land movement, leaving you feel
that the land was always destined to be a golf course,
so natural is the lay-out and design.
The West
course first opened in December 1994, and was designed
by Taiwanese architect Chen King Shih. The Par 72
Championship Course hosted the Vietnam Open (Asian PGA
Tour Event) in both 1995 and 1997. The course winds its
way through the trees offering challenging tee shots to
the tree lined fairways before playing to the softly
contoured Bermuda TifEagle greens, which provide
beautiful putting surfaces all year round.
Lee
Trevino, six-time Major Champion Winner (US Open
1968,1971, USPGA Championship 1974, 1984 and The Open
Championship 1971 and 1972), designed the East Course
which opened in September 1997. The East Course offers
more generous fairways than the West Course but is
protected by well positioned bunkers, water hazards and
undulating Bermuda TifDwarf greens.
Whichever
course you decide to play, you will leave Vietnam Golf
& Country Club with many fond memories of the golf
course and the whole experience….
