I watched the tournament over all four days. New viewing stands had been installed, making it easier to see than last year. The venue staff were all kind and polite. There was ample parking space, which was convenient. And best of all, I was able to see the LPGA players' amazing shots right in front of me. It was a fantastic tournament.
It was terrific seeing my two favorites players Lydia Ko and Geeno Thitikul. Thank you very much for the experience. For fans: bring umbrella and stay hydrated.
This was more 4th year attending the tournament. I travel from the US each year for the Honda LPGA tournament. Each year the experience has been more enjoyable and well worth the travel time (30+ hours each way). The staff are fantastic and the proximity to the players is amazing.
The event is very well organised, but seating around the 18th hole could be covered and a stand beside the TV screen that presently is angled directly for the Honda Elite invitation only people.
That stand should be one level you can buy a ticket for and the other for Honda.
More little drink vendors around the course.
Maybe some carts could be for hire to take you to the far end of the course....extremely hot and this would greatly help.
More bus services like the one from Terminal twenty one at different locations. Taxis and GRAB or Bolt are difficult to get you take you to the course and back again and the price you book at always goes up.
The stands at the par 3 holes should be covered.
The daily price at the 9th hole pavilion is ridiculously priced for what you get and the club house eatery is silly because you think you're getting a view of the course and then you arrive and it's super crowded and no view and a few tvs...stupid.
The Thai staff everywhere on course and vendors were terrific.
I've been coming for the last 4 years from Australia and with respect to the layout, zero things have changed. There seems to be a lack of imagination for improving the non Honda Elite invitees golf course experience.
Honda Elite invitees happy in Honda tent at the 18th green then Honda management happy....this kind of thinking is wrong. If Jeeno and a few other Thai players and the Japanese players start dropping ( God forbid) in the global ranking the tournament will lose its allure and those General entry people will quickly vanish.
What about stands behind the 1st, 7th, 10th or the 17th because where you are forced to stand 90% of the time cannot see the hole. It would add so much energy.
By the way...the HSBC has some catching up to match the Honda.
See you in Singapore.
Initial thoughts 🤔
A fantastic 4 days and a record breaking crowd over the 4 days. It gets a bit manic on the last 2 days but thats a testament to the support of all the Fans travelling from all over the world. I come from Ireland every year. Continued success to this great course
Returned again to watch the Ladies play and wasn't disappointed. Great viewing all over the course. Food and beverage experience great. plenty of info available and organization very good. Will return next year and the over 60s FOC entry a nice touch.
More toilets are the main issue, more food choices, very long queues for both on Sunday.
The rest of the service is excellent, especially the songtao from parking
A souvenir program to buy would be nice and/or a starter sheet with names & holes
Thoroughly enjoyable day.
Thai personnel, as usual, providing a wonderful presentation.
A memorable day!
Everything, as usual for Thai people so beautifully prepared.
Great event
Extremely disappointed with the event.
Absolutely no atmosphere at all.
Sadly we left after 3 hours and didn't return for the final day.
Our holiday was based around watching the golf.
We attended the ladies golf in Evian several years ago and that was fantastic.
Went to see the practice on the Wednesday and were allowed in through gates. Walking to the golf course an extremely aggressive official approached us as if we were a threat to security. This official claimed that nobody goes to watch pro ams on the Wednesday before the tournament. We explained we go to many tournaments across the world and have on many occasions watched pro ams. However this lpga official (Thai man) escorted us to the gate as if we had done something wrong. I can't remember his name but he really should not be allowed contact with golf fans/paying customers. However we watched to golf on Thursday and enjoyed every bit. Delighted to see Patty grab a home win.
The tournament was an outstanding experience for me because the event was organized exceptionally well, the friendliness of everyone there, and the beauty of Siam GC Old Course. But the most important reason was the players fierce level of competition and skill.
Not enough boxes, sold out too quickly
Excellent hospitality and service. If possible a little bit more rest rooms are expected next year.
Excellent
Everything are perfect
I have been attending this event for nearly 20 yrs and always enjoy it' I have been friends with May and Mo the Jutunagarn sisters and Waen Pornanong Phatlum through all these years'. The Course is fantastic and has some very hard holes that makes a great challenge right up to the 54th hole. The layout of the course and viewing areas are great though it can get a bit congested on the Sunday' The amount of work and Money Honda put in to this effect and they are rewarded by the fantastic support they get every year.
Very good tournament, see you next year.
