Course Introduction
A dogleg right middle course with a pond on the right. From 265 yards or more on the tee shot, the pond on the right and the OB line on the left come at you from both sides, so the further you fly, the narrower the landing area becomes. The green swings further to the right, and the second shot must go over the pond. Bunkers are located in front, behind, and to the left of the long green.
A long straight shot. The fairway and green overhang the pond from about 120 yards to the green. Be careful of the pond and fairway bunkers on the left and right for the second shot. The green is long and faces the pond on the left side, so it is more difficult if the pin is on the left. Be careful of the guard bunker in front of the green.
A dogleg right middle course with a pond on the right. The tee shot must be carried over the pond and bunkers, about 210 yards. The OB line on the left is shallow, and a pond awaits on the right, so an accurate tee shot is required. The green is long and narrow, with bunkers on the front left and right.
A slight dogleg to the right. 280 yards from the tee, the rough on both sides becomes a pond, and from there, the fairway extends in a peninsula shape toward the pond. 140 yards from the green, the fairway ends and is divided by the pond. The new fairway and the green merge to form a floating island. On the second shot, you must decide whether to hit into the fairway in front or into the narrow floating island fairway. The green is surrounded by ponds as well as bunkers.
Trivia
45 minutes by car from central Bangkok. Anyone can play from the full back black tee. There is a hotel next door and massages are also available.
The Royal Gems Golf City, which opened in 2011, is managed by the same parent company but is a completely different course.
