The 10th running of the Honda LPGA Thailand saw forty nine of the World’s top 50 female golfers descend on Siam Country Club’s Old Course competing for a record US$1.6million.
Lexi Thompson claimed her seventh LPGA title in impressive fashion at the 2016 Honda LPGA Thailand and shot a final-round 4-under 68 for a six-shot victory over reigning U.S. Women’s Open champion In Gee Chun.
With this win, Thompson moves to No. 3 in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings and surpasses Stacy Lewis as the top-ranked American.
With nine Thais on the full LPGA tour interest in golf here in Thailand is very strong. Pattaya is perhaps the ideal place to host this major global sporting event as they love their golf here with over 26 top courses all within 60 minutes from the city.
The Old Course was in first class condition and was praised by all the players as one of the best tracks on tour, with the par 5 18th hole providing more drama than a Thai soap opera.
Good news for golf tourism is the fact that the tournament was seen by over 172 countries on live TV and the organisers said that attendance was up by a massive 15% with over 13,000 watching on the final day.
- First golfing trip to Thailand, and Golfasian were amazing! From the initial emails queries right through to meeting me for a round of golf in Bangkok, Golfasian were invested in making my trip memorable and they completely excelled my expectations. The team took the time to fully understand my interests and structured a tour across Thailand that was incredible. The drivers, the caddies, tte ournament staff, and the support staff all do an awesome job to make things as seamless as possible for you. They really know their stuff, they know the courses, the caddies, and the accomodation which ensures you gain the eperience you are truly looking for. Thanks to AJ, Richard, Brian and the extended team in Chiang Mai (two ball tournament) for a magical Thai golfing experience, I'm absolutely hooked and I'm already preparing my next adventure with Golfasian after being home for two days! If you are looking for the ultimate golfing experience in Thailand (or anywhere in SE Asia for that matter), be sure to book it through Golfasian.
Cam Daniell - Just finished two wonderful weeks of golf in Thailand organized by Golf Asia. Incredible courses in both Hua Hin & Chaing Mai. Black Mountain and Banyon are outstanding. Ian Morgan in Hua Hin was a complete professional and had a chance to stop by so we could meet him.
Definitely recommended as a complete turn-key service. Caddies are new to us but great aspect of golf in Thailand.
Bill Donahue - Remarkable, great staff.I recommand golf Asian for organizing ability and méthods. No hesitation.
Bruno Gibert - After our fantastic vacation, I wanted to take a moment to thank you. It was purely by chance that I stumbled upon GolfAsian during my internet search, but I couldn't imagine a better organization. The service and follow-up were excellent, and the selection of golf clubs and excursions was perfect. This definitely deserves a repeat. I will wholeheartedly recommend your organization within our golf circles here in Belgium.
If there's any way I can be of assistance to GolfAsia in Europe, please let me know.
