Tiger Woods to Play in One-day Thai Skins Tournament

CHONBURI: -- Tiger Woods looks set to appear at a one-day skins tournament in Thailand next month, the event held to mark His Majesty the Kings 60th jubilee as Thailand’s monarch.

Bangkok, the 7th of October 2010: Organisers of the tournament announced Thursday that Woods would visit Thailand to compete in the event, his first return to the country of his mother’s birth in nearly 10 years.

The event, held at the Amata Spring Country Club in Chon-Buri, will be a one-day skins tournament organised to commemorate His Majesty the King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s 60th jubilee as monarch of the Thai Kingdom.

The Amata Spring Country Club is a world-class golf course, the host of the 2010 Royal Trophy and former location for the Honda LPGA Thailand Open. The course boasts the only ‘floating green’ in Asia at the par-3 17th and is approximately 7,400 yards in length off the championship tees.

Actually his mother is HALF Thai, 1/4 Chinese and 1/4 Dutch.... Father is Native American, Chinese and Afro AMerican....

Kultida (née Punsawad), originally from Thailand, is of mixed Thai, Chinese, and Dutch ancestry. This makes Woods himself half Asian (one-quarter Chinese and one-quarter Thai), one-quarter African American, one-eighth Native American, and one-eighth Dutch.[

Didn't know his mother is 100% Thai. That is a pretty strong connection to Thailand.

That is why we call him an America for short - He is pretty much a mut like me.

Scott - Pawnee and Norwegian - Swedish Then my wife is Thai so the kids are half as much a mut as I And the three grand kids are back in the blender.
