overview
Opened in 1994, Vietnam G&CC is the most established club in Ho Chi Minh City, boasting 36 holes, 800 members and a superb location northeast of the city center. The original 18, the West Course, is carved from a cashew plantation and feels more old-fashioned, with its complement of graceful doglegs and perched greens. The East Course is longer, more open and modern with 18 smaller, more flamboyantly contoured putting surfaces flanked by arrays of deep, sparkling white bunkers. Vietnam G&CC is a members club in the British tradition, meaning visitors are welcome (more so during the week), but everything else screams “private”, from the pristine playing conditions, to the expert caddie corps, to the inviting bar and restaurant where massive plate-glass windows provide panoramic views of the club grounds.
features

SIGNATURES: The par-3 17th hole, on the East, where a false-fronted green and overhanging tree complicate its 217 yards; on the West, the short-but-clever par-4 5th, with its testing dogleg, and the heroic 228-yard par-3 3rd.

GETTING THERE: Vietnam G&CC is the closest course to central Saigon, some 20 km (or 30 minutes) from downtown.

LONE TREES: The West Course was designed by Taiwanese architect Chen King Shih, who unobtrusively accented several doglegs with lone trees in the middle of fairways.

MEXICAN FUSION: The East Course was laid out by Lee Trevino and opened in 1997. It is the six-time major champion’s only Asian design.

TOUR TESTED: VGCC played host to the 1995 and 1997 Vietnam Opens, the first two Asian PGA Tour events ever held in Vietnam. 

GOOD COUNSEL: Befitting a well established club, Vietnam G&CC's  caddies are among the most knowledgeable in Asia. Take their advice, especially on the greens.
