Alpine Golf & Sports Club
Alpine Golf & Sports Club is widely regarded as one of the finest golf courses in Thailand and among the best in Asia. Designed by Ronald M. Garl and built on former rice paddy fields in Pathum Thani province, the course has been sculpted into a rolling, elevated landscape that belies its flat origins. Alpine earned its international reputation by hosting the 2000 Johnnie Walker Classic, won by Tiger Woods — one of the most prestigious events ever held in Thailand. The greens consistently run at Stimpmeter speeds of 10.5 or higher, making precision putting essential. Green fees are at the premium end of the Bangkok market, reflecting the course's conditioning and prestige.

Siam Country Club Bangkok is the newest and most ambitious addition to the Siam Country Club portfolio, Thailand's most respected golf brand. Opened in 2022 on the Bangna-Trad Highway in Samut Prakan, it was designed by Toby Cobb — a close design associate of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw — bringing a decidedly American architectural philosophy to Bangkok's southern suburbs. The result is a hybrid layout that marries a sparsely treed parkland feel with genuine links characteristics: wide, flowing corridors, naturalistic bunkering, and a course that rewards strategic positioning over sheer power. At 7,250 yards from the tips with Zoysia fairways and ultra-dwarf Bermuda greens, it sets a high bar for conditioning. With only four water holes, it is unusually benign for a Bangkok area course and suits golfers who prefer to think their way around rather than manage constant water carries. The club's premium branding means fees sit at the top of the Bangkok market.
