Wed 22.03 Da Nang – Montgomerie Links Course
In true Colin Montgomerie style, the gifted player worked his magic on the dune landscape of the eastern Vietnamese coast to create a Scottish golfing paradise. Golfers will know what that means: the way to the final putt is determined by the layout. In particular, the large number of bunkers makes for a formidable obstacle between the willing golfer and success.

Golfers will know what that means: the way to the final putt is determined by the layout. In particular, the large number of bunkers makes for a formidable obstacle between the willing golfer and success.
Fri 24.03 Ho Chi Minh City – Long Thanh Golf Club
This is not the place for golfers with a water phobia! After all, 16 of the 18 holes are influenced by the wet stuff. On this golf course, which is equipped with floodlights, it is worth playing a bit more cautiously. Taking too many risks will affect your score, as well as the number of balls in your golf bag.
Mon 27.03 Ko Samui – Santiburi Samui Country Club
Here you will be confronted by a very special golfing highlight: this course is situated right in the midst of the island’s subtropical mountain landscape, surrounded by coconut palms. Each of the fairways is characterised by the natural features of the terrain. As the course is very hilly, a golf cart is compulsory. The views from this course may well distract you from your game.
Thu 30.03 Penang – Penang Golf Club (additional course)
Established in 1984 as the Bukit Jambul Golf Club, the club in the middle of George Town reopened in 2012 after extensive renovation work. The fairways are on hilly terrain that used to be covered in jungle and you will see some unique flora and fauna. The 18-hole (par 72) course was designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr and has already been the venue for the Malaysia Open.
Fri 31.03 Langkawi – The Els Club Teluk Datai
Ernie Els not only made a good impression on Langkawi; he also left behind an outstanding golf course. The gifted golfer created a gem of a golf course here in the rainforest. The course takes you through the flora of the island right up to the seafront. At the 7th hole, a 569 m (1,866 ft) long par 5, you tee off on a fairway that leads straight towards the Indian Ocean and then finishes along a strip of land beside the blue sea.
Sun 02.04 Singapore – Marina Bay Golf Course
The 18 holes on this course, which is just under ten years old, are lit by glare-free floodlights, so you can finish your game even if you tee off late in the day. The 91 bunkers, some of which are very deep, present more of a challenge to your golfing expertise than the layout of the fairways. It is worth playing a tactical game as one more stroke can in some circumstances lead to a better score.
