About this course

President Country Club's West Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr., occupies land in the Lumtoiting area of Bangkok's outer districts. Jones brought his characteristic strategic design approach to this Thai layout, incorporating the region's flat to gently rolling terrain and tropical climate into a course that emphasizes positioning and course management over pure length. The design reflects Jones's philosophy of creating multiple playing options from each tee, rewarding thoughtful shot-making while remaining accessible to golfers of varying abilities. The course navigates through a landscape typical of the Bangkok basin, where water management becomes both an aesthetic and strategic element. Ponds, lakes, and drainage features appear throughout the routing, requiring golfers to account for water hazards on approach shots and around greens. The tropical setting provides a lush backdrop, with native vegetation and mature trees framing fairways and defining playing corridors. Jones's green complexes offer varied pin positions and demand precise distance control in the humid conditions. President Country Club serves Bangkok's golfing community as part of Thailand's extensive golf infrastructure, which developed significantly during the latter decades of the twentieth century. The West Course operates alongside other layouts at the property, providing members and visitors with options for daily play. The club reflects the social role golf occupies in Thai urban centers, where country clubs function as gathering places for business and leisure. Conditions remain playable year-round, though the monsoon season brings afternoon storms that can affect pace of play.

Getting there

The journey to President Country Club begins at Suvarnabhumi Airport, Bangkok's gleaming international gateway, positioned roughly 40 kilometers southeast of the club's tranquil grounds in Lumtoiting. From the terminal, the route threads northwest through the sprawling eastern suburbs of the Thai capital, gradually shedding the density of the city for the quieter, semi-rural fringes where Bangkok begins to exhale. Within an hour - traffic permitting - the roadside transitions to open plots and tree-lined avenues, delivering you to the gates of President Country Club, a serene retreat that feels worlds removed from the urban pulse you've just left behind.
