Hoiana Shores Golf Club Successfully Hosted the Prestigious Seventh WAAP Championship
With
this victory, Jeneath Wong secures a coveted golden ticket to compete
against the world's best in three Major Championships this year: the Chevron
Championship (April 24-27), the Evian Championship (July 10-13), the AIG
Women's Open (July 31-August 3).
Recognized
as one of the world's top 100 golf courses, Hoiana Shores Golf Club served as
the official venue for the championship, receiving high praise from players,
WAAP organizers, sponsors, officials, and media for its exceptional course
layout, strategic and challenging design, outstanding service, passionate team,
and state-of-the-art facilities.
Before
receiving her trophy, Jeneath Wong expressed her gratitude:
"Thank you to Hoiana Shores Golf Club for a perfect course, and to my
Vietnamese caddie for the incredible support throughout the tournament."
Niall
Farquharson, Chairman of The R&A, shared his appreciation: "I would
like to thank Alan Teo, CEO of Hoiana Resort & Golf, Dr. Aylwin
Tai, and Wee Peng Siong, General Manager of Hoiana Shores Golf Club. You have
an incredible facility here in Vietnam, and you could not have done more
to make us feel welcome. Given the quality of the course and its facilities, it
is hard to believe that the course is only celebrating its fifth anniversary
this year. It has provided the perfect stage to challenge the players and
showcase their exceptional talent this week."
Hosting
a world-class golf tournament for the first time in Vietnam has been
a great honor for Hoiana Shores Golf Club, reinforcing its mission to
connect Vietnam to the global golf community. Moving forward, the
club will continue its strong collaboration with The R&A to promote and
develop key golf initiatives, including R&A Sustainable Golf and
educational programs such as the Rules of Golf, Junior & Public Golf, and
Club & Turf Management, benefiting both Vietnam and the
broader Asia-Pacific region.
