The seven members are Laguna Golf Lang Co (designed by Sir Nick Faldo), Ba Na Hills Golf Club (designed by Luke Donald), Montgomerie Links (designed by Colin Montgomerie), BRG Danang Golf Resort (designed by Greg Norman and Jack Nicklaus), Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An (IMG Design) as well as the soon-to-open Hoiana Shores Golf Club (designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr.) in a league that promises to capture the attention of avid golfers worldwide.
Vietnam Golf Coast marked its official launch in Danang last week with 18 holes at the BRG Danang Golf Resort, and a media event and awards dinner at the Sheraton Grand Danang.
“The goal of Vietnam Golf Coast is to shine a light on the amazing golf courses here in central Vietnam,” said Ben Styles, chairman of Vietnam Golf Coast.
“Together we have an opportunity to showcase some legends of golf and golf architecture in one location, alongside pristine beaches and compelling tourism activities for all.”
Vietnam has become one of the most favorite destinations in the world for golfers in recent years. The country was named “Asia’s Best Golf Destination” at the World Golf Awards in 2017 and 2018.
