Sân Golf Tân Sơn Nhất

What Sân Golf Tân Sơn Nhất does

Sân Golf Tân Sơn Nhất (Tan Son Nhat Golf Course) is a privately held golf facility headquartered at 6 Tân Sơn Street, An Hội Tây Ward, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, operated by Công ty Cổ phần Đầu tư Long Biên (Long Biên Investment Joint Stock Company) since its official inauguration on August 12, 2015. The facility consists of an 18-hole championship course, designed by Nelson & Haworth Golf Course Architects and configured into four sub-courses (A, B, C, D), plus a 68-bay driving range with night lighting that supports 24-hour utilization in segments. It is described as the only open golf course located within Ho Chi Minh City proper, occupying a structurally advantaged urban position in Go Vap District. Headcount sits in the 1,001-5,000 range, reflecting the labor intensity of caddie service, grounds maintenance, F&B, and event operations.

The company monetizes through four principal revenue streams: green fees for 18-hole play, driving range fees (e.g., 240,000 VND for 150 practice balls), tournament and corporate event hosting (with capacity for 288+ golfers via shotgun starts across the four sub-courses), and Hole-in-One prize program revenue. Pricing is unit-based and varies by season, day of week, and time of day, with promotional green fees starting at 3.5 million VND. The company also sells tiered membership cards (Diamond, Ruby, Sapphire) and runs a recurring championship franchise now in its 9th season, alongside the new International Golf Connect Series 2026.

Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer across multiple channels: hotline booking, website, the VnGolf Courses mobile app, and a Zalo OA channel launched in August 2024. Customer segments include individual golfers, corporate groups (including named sponsors such as Sacombank and the HCMC Golf Association), golf clubs hosting inter-club championships, and a developing families/youth segment anchored by the Golf Junior 2026 program. Marketing relies on owned digital (Facebook, YouTube, Zalo, website), email and phone, and event-driven tournament participation. Brand equity is reinforced by three regional awards — Top 10 Best Golf Courses in Vietnam (2019), Most Popular Golf Course at VGA Awards (2020), and Best Caddie Team (2022).

Others

• Vietnam Golf Association (VGA): Industry governing body that ranks and certifies Vietnam's golf courses (including Tan Son Nhat's Top 10 award). Included as an ecosystem reference rather than a direct competitor; relevant context for benchmarking industry positioning.

Regional players

• Ho Tram Strip (The Bluffs Grand Ho Tram): Greg Norman-designed championship course near Ho Chi Minh City within an integrated resort. Comparable in premium positioning, design pedigree and tournament ambitions, but competes from the resort segment rather than urban accessibility.
• Twin Doves Golf Club: Members-oriented golf club in Bình Dương (greater HCMC metro) serving a similar HCMC-resident corporate and individual golfer base. Comparable membership-tier model and tournament events, with a more suburban catchment.
• Saigon South Golf Club (now CLB Golf Phú Mỹ Hưng): Closest large-scale competition to Tan Son Nhat within greater HCMC; comparable 18-hole championship layout and corporate-event hosting business, but located outside central HCMC, partially neutralizing Tan Son Nhat's urban-accessibility advantage.
• Laguna Golf Lăng Cô: International-branded championship course (designed by Nick Faldo) integrated with the Laguna resort complex in central Vietnam. Comparable premium positioning and event-hosting model, but geographically distinct from Tan Son Nhat's southern Vietnam market.
• FLC Quang Binh Golf Links: Large-scale resort-golf complex in central Vietnam operated by FLC Group. Comparable in championship-course scale and tournament-hosting capability, but primarily serves a different regional catchment from Tan Son Nhat's HCMC-centric base.
• Montgomerie Links Vietnam: Colin Montgomerie-designed championship course in central Vietnam targeting international and corporate golf tourists. Comparable in premium pricing, signature-designer branding and event-hosting capability, with a primarily inbound vs. local-resident customer base.

Direct peers

• BRG Da Nang Golf Resort: Premium championship golf course in central Vietnam owned by BRG Group; competes with Tan Son Nhat for Vietnam-wide tournament hosting, corporate events and the international golf-tourist segment, making it a directly comparable premium-course operator.
• Long Bien Golf Course: Sister facility operated by the same parent company (Long Bien Investment JSC), running an identical 18-hole + driving-range business model in the Hanoi region — directly comparable in operating model, customer mix and tournament-led revenue approach.

Broad incumbents

• Vinpearl Golf: Vinpearl/Vingroup operates multiple resort-integrated golf courses across Vietnam (e.g., Vinpearl Golf Hai Phong, Nha Trang). Broader incumbent with a portfolio of leisure assets; competes with Tan Son Nhat for premium and resort-leisure golfers nationwide.
