リバークワイ ゴルフ & カントリー クラブ
A hilly course. There are many narrow holes, and if your tee shot curves, you won't get a good score. The greens are small and have a steep slope, so shots aimed at the greens require accuracy. The course was built without interfering with nature, so you can enjoy a wonderful view from the course. The official scorecard states the course is 7,255 yards, but in reality, the yardage on many holes is low, and it's actually around 7,000 yards. Even at that distance, it's definitely a challenging course.

Course Introduction
A straight hole that starts downhill. A fairway wood is required for the tee shot, as anything over 250 yards will be caught by the river. Be careful with slicers, as there is a high risk of losing the ball if you hit into the trees on the right side of the fairway. The second shot is over a pond towards the steeply sloping green.
Trivia
It is a 3 hour drive from Bangkok. Accommodation is available. Designer Anand Yomchinda also designed Blue Sapphire G&R and Evergreen Hills GC&R.
