Golf in Cambodia

[Sylvester]

I made this topic as i got some questions in regards to golf in Cambodia in my introduction topic.

Golf in Cambodia is quite expensive with green fees of $90 to $100 in the weekend at the better courses and on weekdays its about $70 to $80 as it is in this region.
Caddie is compulsory and adds another $15 on top of that.

I would guess that there are about 500 locals playing golf and maybe about 800 expats spread out over 2 different cities (7 courses). The increasing number of golf tourists are the ones really boosting the industry here.

In total there are 3 golf destinations with the locals and expats playing in the capital Phnom Penh and Siem Reap known for Angkor Wat. The third one is a new development by the Chinese who are building a seaside resort with several courses of which the first 2 are recently finished but attract few people yet.

I like to take photos so to give you some impressions of the courses and some additional info i will split it up, starting with Siem Reap and its 3 courses; 
 

1. Cambodia`s leading golf course designed by Nick Faldo: Angkor Golf Resort.

2. Phokeethra Country Club, former host of the Cambodian Open part of the Asian Tour.

 

3. Booyoung Country Club

Played a new course on the coast... Hill View Course at Dara Sakor in Koh Kong, Cambodia.

Tricky course for people who struggle with their driver like me. Nice hotel and beach area with hardly anyone around.

Sitting here at the airport on Lanai thinking 2 things; 1) wow there are a lifetime of experiences out there and 2) where can I find a practice range with mirrors closer than Cambodia? 

Mahalo for sharing!
