What is it? No golf in Vietnam?
And yet there are 45 magnificent golf courses listed in Vietnam and probably a dozen more under construction, yet I have not played.
How is it possible ?
Simply because the price of the golf courses is prohibitive which irritates me a lot in a country where there are few problems of watering and where the labour costs are very low. Decidedly here as almost everywhere in the world, the owners of the golf courses undoubtedly with the blessing of the federations make everything so that this sport is a sport of Emilie reserved for a rich clientele. We are very far from the democratization of golf in Vietnam.
It is impossible to find a golf course where you can pay less than 100 € just for the greenfee, without counting the exorbitant price of the bag rental which can easily reach 50 €.
So no golf in Vietnam, to my great regret because all the ones I had the opportunity to see seemed really great. But when you travel with a small budget you have to make choices…
