Phuket Country Club Golf Course

Phuket Country Club is a 27-hole golf course, located in Kathu, between Patong and Phuket Town.

The Country Club was established in 1989 and is the oldest golf course in Phuket, featuring two golf courses, the Old 18-hole course and a 9-hole course.

The old course at Phuket Country Club is an 18-hole, par-72, 6491 yard resort-style golf course.

The old course is designed to provide a challenging yet enjoyable round of golf, particularly for golfers with a mid-to-high handicap who play off the white tees.

The Country Club course is a 9-hole, par-36 golf course, measuring 3,375 yards. The 9-hole course opened in 2000.
This course is quite challenging, with water coming into play on many holes, and well suited for low handicap golfers playing off the blue tees, or if you only want to play a quick 9 holes of golf.

I had the pleasure of playing on the old course for the first time over 30 years ago, and after many return visits, the course still has the better of me.

The Old Course has a good variety of holes, winding across the hillside.

My favourite hole of this course is the 10th hole, a challenging 557-yard par 5.

On this hole, you have a choice of playing around the lake or going for broke and carrying the 240 yards over the water, directly to the green.

My recommendation for tackling this hole is to aim for the green in a single shot. If you’re feeling uncertain, it’s wise to use an old ball. Worst-case scenario is if you don’t make the carry to the green, your ball might end up joining a few of mine in the lake.

The 17th hole is also quite difficult; you will need an accurate tee shot and club selection as the pin is located on an island surrounded by water. Misjudge the tee shot, and you will be in the water.
