For the third consecutive year Phokeethra Country Club will host the Asia Tour’s upcoming Johnny Walker Cambodian Open, the most prestigious annual golfing event in the region. The weeklong tournament is scheduled to take place in December 2009.

Supachai Verapuchong, Managing Director of the Phokeethra Country Club, is proud and honored that the Club has once again been selected as the venue for this important event – an occasion that clearly highlights the Club’s position as Cambodia’s premier golf course and one of the top golfing facilities in the region.

Mr Verapuchong continues to believe that the unprecedented spotlight on Cambodia from the world of professional golf will further the cause of developing golf tourism in Cambodia, with Siem Reap fast on its way to becoming a world–class golfing destination.
