Alpine, Chiangmai
The Alpine Golf Resort - Chiangmai (formerly the Chiangmai Lamphun Golf Club) is yet another golf course in the Chiangmai province that enjoys an excellent reputation, not least since its acquisition by the owners of the very prestigious Alpine Golf Club near Bangkok.
The course was originally conceived and designed by a local golf enthusiast, Dr. Sukhum. Although not a professional course designer, he applied an intuitive understanding of what was required.
The club's original literature contains the following description : "this challenging and mature layout lies at the heart of northern Thailand’s most beautiful scenery. Established in 1990, Chiangmai-Lamphun was the first private golf course of Northern Thailand.
The 18-hole championship course, lies in a natural valley surrounded by beautiful rolling hills. Laid out along a winding creek, thousands of mature native trees together with well-designed traditional-style buildings give the golf course its unique, distinctly northern character.
Its contoured terrain, interspersed with creeks and water hazards, offers a challenge to golfers of all handicaps whilst its enchanting natural surroundings will lure you back time and time again. A golf round here will be like taking a walk in a "Big Garden".
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Non-metal spike facility. Walking permitted. Golf carts available for hire. Caddies used by all players.

Now under common ownership with the prestigious Alpine Golf Club just north of Bangkok, Chiangmai Lamphun has been rebranded as the Alpine Golf Resort - Chiangmai. Improved maintenance and course renovation has accompanied this recent change of ownership.
Chiangmai-Lamphun Golf Club hosted several important regional and national tournaments, and was the venue for the 1995 South East Asian Games. The course nestles in a valley between two mountain ranges and is surrounded by natural forest.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
