The 2011 Golfasian Amateur Golf Week Tournaments tee off with the Hua Hin Amateur Golf Week, starting 12th March through 18th March and then moves throughout the country during 2011, playing the best courses in each area in a tournament style event, designed for amateur golfers to play in a pro style tournament and promises to show case the best courses that each area has to offer.
Managing Director for Golfasian Mark Siegel says the best golf courses in each region have hosted major events on both the US and European Golf tours, these golf courses are designed to challenge all levels of golfers. The players will have to carefully manoeuvre their shots around the courses to maximise scoring and to keep lost balls to a minimum.
The tournaments, running for 7 days and 6 nights each, will be played over 4 rounds, at different courses, with a stableford competition accumulating over the week to result in the overall winner.
Mark Siegel mentioned that “The good thing about having this type of format using Stableford is one or two bad holes don’t really hurt in a 72 hole tournament, but you do need to be fairly consistent during the week to win!”
These Thailand Amateur Golf Week tournaments will have daily winners and the usual nearest pin and best nine hole scores each day, but the better prizes will be for the overall winners.
These events are open to all players either travelling on their own, small groups as well as larger groups. Some clubs are sending their club champions as their prize for winning end of year club events.
Other great Thailand golf destinations to host the Thailand Amateur Golf Week Tournaments will be Pattaya, Phuket and Series Final in Chiang Mai in October.
Pattaya has 40 golf courses within an hour’s drive and the courses that are being played are all top shelf, 3 of the courses have hosted LPGA Tour and Asian Tour events this year. In fact the LPGA will be playing Siam Country Club Plantation Feb 25-28, so when the Amateur Week starts on 18th March, the course will still be in tournament condition.
Director of Golf for Golfasian Mark Penfold emphasizes the enjoyable aspects of the tournaments, taking the best courses in each destination and offering players the chance to experience the thrill of competing in a real tournament and to meet other golfers in a sociable and competitive environment.
Entries for these Thailand Amateur Golf Weeks are open and you book can book now for any of the events planned for this year.

- This was our second trip organised by GolfAsian and hopefully not the last. Our contact, Jim, has been very helpful and patient with various changes in our plans. All 8 of us were very happy with the golf courses and hotel accommodation. The pickups were flawless and the drivers always very competent. Highly reccomend this company.
Sue Armstrong - Most outstanding and professional service ever best layout of golf. The hotel was beautiful and the best breakfast ever fresh fruits 🍉 I wish I could have played two rounds each day that’s my only regret... golf Asia. I’m going to use you every year so remember my name and review very well
Nirav Vallabh - Thanks for yet another fabulous golf holiday in Thailand. This was our 6th and probably our best yet. This time we were a group of 18 visiting Hua Hin and Phuket. We all loved Banyan and Black Mountain (HH) and Red Mountain & Blue Canyon in Phuket. All the hotels we stayed at - Sofitel (Bkk) Centara (HH) & Angsana (Phuket) were fabulous. The transportation to and from the courses and additional transportation to other places of interest were on time and efficient. Lit who set up our programme and Bua our on-the-ground guide were enthusiastic and a pleasure to deal with. Everything went without a hitch, according to the schedule that Lit had assiduously set up for us. Thanks to Golfasian for their attention to detail and meticulousness. In doing so, you took the stress out of travelling in a large group where things can go horribly wrong very quickly. Because the planning was so thorough, you made everything enjoyable, stress free and fun. We're already planning for next year.
Marina Wilson - I would like to joint golfasian
Jimmy Siow Quey Sang - Prima georganiseerde trip naar Bali gedaan met uitstekende verzorging ter plaatse; terima kasih mr. Putu!!

William Ang - Fourth trips with Golfasian, thanks Mark, Lit and all of the staffs that look after us for this amazing trip. You guys delivered every time we booked with you, you never fail us once. See you on our 5th trip of Pattaya and Bangkok. Oct 2023. You guys are the best.
Jason Kang - Just booked a 18 day golf trip to Thailand. Played some of the best courses in Thailand. Courses where great, drivers where professional and on time, hotels where amazing and in great locations. The communication was always great. I highly recommend Golfasian.
Inder Gill - Just had 17 of my members from Mt Derrimut Melb, Aust play and stay in Hua HIN through Golfasia.
From pick up in Bangkok to being dropped off to head home, Ian Morgan and his staff could not have been more helpful. Courses were amazing.
Stay Balanced
Geoff Ross Aust PGA member..
Geoff Ross - Our recent trip to the Pattaya area for 6 rounds of golf was excellent, and went very smoothly. Golfasian's itinerary was well executed, and everything worked like clockwork. Their drivers were exceptional in their service, and would register us at the golf club while we went straight to the locker room or driving range.
All this at very reasonable price levels makes Golfasian the number one choice for our group, and this is confirmed by us planning our golf holiday through Golfasian for the 8th year in a row.
Thank you Ian Morgan, and see you guys next year.
