The BRG Golf Hanoi Festival offers a chance for international golfers to experience a chain of high-class courses, special culinary identities, and the professionalism of the host. As the tournament is held in the autumn, it is an optimal time for tourists who want to explore Vietnam through golf, and enjoy the most beautiful and romantic weather that Hanoi can provide.

One golfer, American David Elliott, said excitedly, “I have played golf in Hanoi for eight years and have many friends who play golf here. Some of them recommended me to play golf at Kings Course and this is part of the reason I participated in the tournament. I am really impressed with the festival’s professional organization, beautiful golf course, and also the great weather. I think it will be a great experience here.”

Participating in this year's tournament, golfers are divided into two groups and will play alternately across a pair of the leading golf courses in the country’s northern region. The first is BRG Legend Hill Golf Resort – the first golf course designed by Nicklaus Design in Vietnam and which features a unique “twin green” design.

The second is Kings Course at BRG Kings Island Golf Resort, which was designed by Jack Nicklaus II, President of Nicklaus Design and the eldest son of golfing legend Jack Nicklaus.

Speaking at the opening ceremony Mark Reeves, director of BRG Group's Golf Division said, “We are proud to bring a festival for golf lovers both domestically and internationally, having organised the BRG Golf Hanoi Festival for four consecutive years. This is a commitment and contribution from BRG Group to the development of the sports industry, as well as promoting Vietnamese golf tourism.”
