Greg Norman was born and grew up in Mount Isa, Queensland, Australia. He spent his childhood on beautiful beaches and sports such as surfing, fishing, … which seemed to have nothing related to Golf. It was until he was 15 that he understood and loved this rich man’s sport. It was in a afternoon when his mother taught the 15-year-old Norman how to golf and allowed him to caddy for her at the Virginia Golf Club, Brisbane. 

So far Greg Norman has been not only a legend in the golf world  but also showed his outstanding talent as a golf course designer.  On the occasion our legendary has just been named Vietnam Tourism Ambassador  for the term of 2018 to 2021, UniGolf would like to list golf masterpieces designed by ” White Shark ” – Greg Norman in Vietnam.

1.BRG Da Nang Golf Resort

Design: Greg Norman

Investor: BRG Group

BRG Danang Golf Resort is Greg Norman’s first masterpiece in Vietnam. Located on the central coast of Vietnam, over 150 hectares of sandy hills, featuring less trees and natural lakes. The 760-yard, 18-hole golf course features a classic link-style design that reminds of the world’s oldest golf courses.

The talent of Greg Norman made the course leap to fame being recognized as “one of the 15 best new courses in the world”. It was right at the time this golf course was introduced to the public(2010). The chance to come Vietnam and design this golf course is the fire bait for his interest in potential  Golf tourism in Vietnam and his desire to create more masterpieces in this country.

 

2.The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip

Investor: Asian Coast Development Ltd (ACDL)

“This is one of only two pieces of land of this quality and character I have ever been given to work with — the other being Doonbeg [in Ireland].”

The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip is located in the southeast of Ho Chi Minh City on the sunny beach. The pitch is 7,000 yards from the professional pitch and 6400 meters on the team play. The course includes five holes par 3; four holes par 5 and nine holes par 4.
