A short drive from Bangkok's thriving metropolis, Lam Luk Ka sets the
stage for a golf experience not easily forgotten. Both courses meander
through Bangkok's wetlands, where over 10,000 trees and water ways provide
homes to over 100 species of birds and wildlife. After your round, relax
and take a swim overlooking the 10th, or enjoy a range of thai or international
culinary delights in the clubhouse restaurant overlooking the 18th.
The Championship East Course places a premium on driving the ball long
and straight. Host of the 2002 Thailand PGA Championship, Lam Luk Ka's
East Course will punish errant golf shots, but make for an enjoyable round
if played from the somewhat friendlier white tees. The back nine is considered
one of the best in Thailand, ending with a dramatic risk-reward Par 5.
Lam Luk Ka's Championship East Course remains one of Thailand's most challenging
layouts.
The West Course is relatively short, but water comes into play on 15 holes
making course management a key factor in scoring. Every hole provides
several options, so longer hitters can still hit driver although it's
not necessary on most holes. The West Course is a favourite of tourists
and recreational golfers, and is home to a plethora of native birds and
wildlife.
