タナシティ カントリークラブ
This is a course that requires a lot of strategy by incorporating ponds and bunkers on the flat terrain. The two middle holes, 9th and 18th, are challenging and interesting. Suvarnabhumi International Airport is nearby, so you can see many planes taking off and landing. There is no noise to be bothered, and you can see the planes up close, which is impressive. It is a different attraction from playing the game.

Course Introduction
A short hole over a river with a tranquil natural landscape as its backdrop. A creek runs diagonally from the front of the green to the left, making the left side of the green dangerous, but the right side is well guarded by a bunker. There is also a bunker at the back of the green, and beyond that is OB.
This is a long hole that starts straight, but then suddenly doglegs to the left 100 yards from the green. When you hit your tee shot, you need to be careful of the pond on the left. For your second shot, you can either hit over the pond towards the green, or dig into the right side of the large bunker in front of the right side of the green.
A long hole with a slight dogleg to the right. The entire right side of the green faces a pond, and the pond and fairway bunkers come into play. It is 270 yards from the tee to the left fairway bunker. There are bunkers in front of the green and on both sides, so the third shot must go over the pond. The pond extends to the left side of the green. The green is back-to-back.
A long middle hole with a pond on the right side of the hole. The second shot is over the pond to the island green, which is swung to the left. The green has a mound in the middle and slopes slightly downward at the front and back. This hole is on the right side of the same pond, and the 9th hole is on the left side, and both are similar distances and have similarly strategic layouts. The only difference is that the water hazard is on either the left or right side of the hole.
