Chiang Mai, Thailand, 23 May 2018 — The Shangri-La Chiang Mai 2 Ball Golf Championship is a must play event for golfers wanting the best of everything. Golfers will experience Thailand’s rich culture, tantalising food, luxury spas and generous hospitality. Chiang Mai’s mountainous terrain and valleys has enabled renowned golf course designers to build breathtakingly beautiful golf resorts. Just as impressive as the courses is the pampering you get from the knowledgeable and well-trained caddies.
The Shangri-La Chiang Mai Golf Championship is a collaboration between Australian based Go Golfing and Thailand’s Golfasian. This powerhouse partnership delivers Asia’s biggest and richest tournaments as well as boutique events like this one.
Playing as a team of two, this event is perfect for couples, best friends and even golfers on their own are guaranteed a partner. The three round golf tournament will be hosted at Alpine Golf Club, Chiang Mai Highlands & Gassan. Playing 1 round at each course gives you a new experience everyday. The much-enjoyed 2 Ball competition format incorporates best ball, ambrose and aggregate events. There’s a mixed division, with a special prize for the best husband and wife combination, as well as divisions for men and ladies.
Tournament director Mark Hawley is excited to be taking the popular 2 Ball competition to Chiang Mai. “The 5-star Shangri-La Chiang Mai luxury accommodation in the heart of the city’s cultural precinct will allow players to immerse themselves in Thai culture. The night bazaar and markets are a shopping haven. The temples are grand, there are beautifully manicured parks and gardens and the national parks in the highlands are stunning. The courses feature on the Asian tour and playing with caddies is a great advantage and really adds to the enjoyment.”
Nightly social events showcasing local culture and entertainment guarantee the Shangri-La Chiang Mai 2 Ball Golf Championship is a very festive and social event. The Tourism Authority of Thailand are putting on a very special welcome dinner, infused with Thai culture and dance.

Mark O Meara - Just back from a 4 night trip to Phuket for 54 holes of golf, at Blue Canyon (Lakes Course), Laguna and Loch Palm. All fantastically organised (flights excluded) by Win. We started with 7 people went down to 5 and then back up to six, and then 1 departing a day early. All the changes were handled smoothly and with out complaint by the Golfasian team. From arrival to departure everything was smooth and on time. I've already recommended their services to another group looking for a trip later in the year. This group will be back again. Thank you to all involved.
Ian Dixon - I was in Thailand and my golf was set by Mr. Win. There were some complications from my side as I had to change dates of trip. Mr Win was very flexible with that and organize all to new dates. I visited and played at almost all golf courses near Pukhet - all of them in very good condition. Some of them are not really for higher HCP player... I would not hesitate to organize my next trip with Mr Win !
Vavro Lubomir - We just completed our trip to Bangkok and played at Alpine and Thai. Everything was planned by Golf Asian very professionally and the trip was awesome. Would surely recommend to others and will use them again for future golf trips. Keep up the good work.
Gorav Jaitly - Our golfing trip of 8 people to Vietnam has just finished sadly. We started off in Ho Chi Minh City, then Danang and finally Hanoi with a two night HaLong Bay cruise to have some R & R after 7 golf games plus some sightseeing. Thank you to everyone at Golfasian from the first enquiry, finalising an itinerary and then our time in Vietnam. Everything ran so smoothly and professionally that we didn't need to stress over any of the arrangements at all. Miss Huong was so helpful with all aspects of our tour and also in organising catering for non seafood eaters wherever we went on our itinerary. The drivers during our stay were friendly and obliging from Tony in Ho Chi Minh, Lucky in Danang and Mr Simon in Hanoi was especially helpful and informative and more than happy to answer any questions plus also give suggestions which we were grateful for. We could not fault the service from Golfasian and would not hesitate to recommend them and use them again.
