Long a favorite
with visitors to Phuket, the 27 holes at Phuket Country
Club are just a short 10 minute drive from Patong and
about 15 minutes from Phuket Town. Phuket Country Club
has two courses, the very popular 18 hole “Old
Course” and the newer, more challenging 9 hole
“Country Club Course”. Both courses were
deigned by the famous Thai course designer, Dr Sukitti
Klangvishai. The Club features the full range of facilities
one would expect of a world-class golf course.
Visitors to Phuket Country Club must
wear “spikeless” or “soft-spiked”
golf shoes. |

| The Old Corse |
| |
Every hole on
the 18 hole resort-style “Old Course” provides
a different playing experience. Opened in 1989, this
is a fun/user friendly course set in a valley with the
course meandering through hills and limestone cliffs.
Three distinct environments are traversed : 6 holes
in undulating hills, 6 holes on the level and 6 holes
through landscaped forest. Whilst the course is not
humiliating or intimidating, wayward shots are severely
penalized. |
| |
The 567 yd, par
5, 10th hole on the Old Course is one of the most unusual
holes. A dogleg right that snakes around an enormous
lake, the pin is reachable in one! To achieve this feat,
one must aim at 90 degrees to the fairway and be able
to carry the shot 240 yards over water. |

| THE COUNTRY CLUB COURSE |
| |
The Country Club
Course is a challenging 3,575 yard, par 37, 9 hole layout
for low handicap golfers. The picturesque beauty of
the scenery and layout somewhat softens the difficulty
of the course which is not easy as wayward shots are
penalized either by the water hazards or OB’s.
Water comes into play on every hole. With 5 tee boxes
at each hole, golfers have the choice of making it less
of an ordeal. The distinct feature is water which comes
into play 90% of the time. Probably more than any course
in Phuket, the Country Club Course is a real test of
golfing skills. |
