For those who like to play golf in and around the Chiang Rai area, there is a group of local expats who get together at 8:30 AM every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at Santiburi Golf Club, in Chiang Rai. We encourage anyone and everyone who would like to play fun, competitive golf to join us there.

We have put together the attached flyer -- please take a look!

We generally have between 3 - 10 players show up, but we could accommodate many more. We use Stableford scoring and handicaps, and would be happy to accept your declared handicap from practically any source, within reason. We usually play skins, with one skin for each hole, closest-to-the-pin skins on each par 3, and two skins awarded for the best Stableford score, and one skin awarded for the Stableford runner-up (for a total of 25 skins). Everyone tosses THB250 (10 baht per skin) into the pot, and it is rare that anyone loses more than 100 - 150 baht. We often mix in some other formats for fun! Players can also play together with us without participating in the skins game.

Santiburi is Chiang Rai's premier golf course, with a spectacular layout. If you haven't played it, you definitely should! Now that the rainy season is beginning to wind down, the course is primed to be in excellent condition.

Our aim is to have low key, fun golf competition with like-minded locals and expats, and we welcome all comers to join us.
