The RG City Golf Club (aka Royal Gems City GC, and the Dream Arena) is on a journey to create a unique 63-hole multi-course golf centre. In their quest to build the "world's largest pure golf city", the first-cab off the rank is actually a "tribute course" ... but a rather special one.
Here in the northern outskirts of Bangkok, Ron Garl has replicated a pot-pourri of world-renowned golf holes on the front-nine. And for the back-nine ... if you've never played at Augusta National ( ... and the likelihood isn't you haven't), now's your chance!
Garl's replica holes on the front-nine loop give you the opportunity to sample Oakmont's "church pews", the island-green par-17th of TPC Sawgrass, Royal Troon's "postage stamp", Bay Hill's sweeping par-5 6th, and St Andrews infamous Road Hole. If that wasn't enough, the back-nine puts you onto Augusta National's back-nine, which you play hole for hole ... with we are told, all the relevant elevation changes.
Whether the quality of presentation and maintenance of these iconic golf holes has also been replicated, or even comes close ... you'll need to visit to find out!
