B at Greenwood Golf Club

Greenwood Golf Club sits in the Chonburi province of eastern Thailand, part of the region's concentration of golf courses that developed as the area grew into a popular destination for both Bangkok residents and international visitors. The course was designed by Peter Thomson, the five-time Open Championship winner who became one of Asia's most prolific golf architects after his competitive career. Thomson designed or co-designed more than a hundred courses across the Asia-Pacific region, bringing a philosophy shaped by his experience on classic links layouts to tropical and subtropical settings.

Thomson's design work in Thailand and Southeast Asia typically emphasized strategic variety and playability across different skill levels, often working with relatively flat terrain and incorporating water features both for challenge and irrigation purposes. His courses generally favored thoughtful positioning over pure length, reflecting his own playing style and his belief that golf should reward accuracy and course management. At Greenwood, the layout would reflect these principles within the landscape of Chonburi province, where courses often navigate through former agricultural land or natural wetlands.

The course serves the local golfing community in an area known for its accessibility from Bangkok and Pattaya, making it part of the network of daily-fee and member courses that cater to Thailand's robust golf tourism industry. The region's year-round playing season and tropical climate define the maintenance and playing conditions typical of courses in this part of the country.
