The Golf

The Four Points by Sheraton Phuket Invitational Golf Week is comprised of 4 rounds of tournament golf. The first round, at Red Mountain Golf Club, is a pairs event that doubles as a practice round. This is a fun day, letting golfers play with one of their friends and have a good day out on Phuket’s best golf course. The remaining three rounds, played at Blue Canyon Country Club’s Canyon Course, Red Mountain Golf Club and Loch Palm Golf Club are all individual Stableford rounds, with daily and weekly winners. The golf courses that will be played in the event are the best-of-the-best when it comes to golf in Phuket. The courses are:

Red Mountain Golf Club

Red Mountain Golf Club is widely considered to be Phuket’s best golf course, set amongst an old Tin Mine, with fantastic views and very tight fairways. Playing through the jungle, and winding around the Tin Mine is a truly amazing experience.

Loch Palm Golf CLub

Loch Palm Golf Club is set amongst a Palm Tree plantation and is a favourite of visitors and locals alike. The first 3 holes have lots of water that comes into play, and the layout is a very enjoyable and memorable one.

Blue Canyon's Canyon Course

Blue Canyon’s Canyon Course was home to the 1998 Johnnie Walker Classic which Tiger Woods won. The course completed its renovations in October 2021 and is in fantastic shape. It is a traditional parkland style course and offers a very stiff challenge due to its undulations and tricky greens.

Of course, each golfer will have their own caddie for each round, and a golf cart at each round too. For any golfer who hasn’t had a caddie, it’s a great experience and definitely one of the highlights of golfing in Thailand. They will help read the lines, give you the behind-the-scenes course tips, rake your bunkers and clean your clubs!

The Non-Golfers

The Four Points by Sheraton Phuket Invitational also has some great activities for non-golfers. A trip to an elephant sanctuary to see how elephants are rehabilitated and cared for is included. There is also a Phuket Highlights trip which hits all the best spots in Phuket such as Phuket Old Town, Chalong Temple, Big Buddha and Phrom Thep Cape View Point. A trip to Thailand wouldn’t be complete without including something related to the delicious food, we have that covered with a fantastic Thai cooking class.

Non-golfers also get access to the welcome and farewell dinners, as well as all 19th hole functions, so they can enjoy the event celebrations with the golfers.

The Four Points by Sheraton Phuket Invitational is a great week of golf and camaraderie, for golfers & non-golfers alike. This amateur golf even gives players the opportunity to play in a small team, individually and also represent their country in the country competition, so there is a great chance at a prize for everyone.
