The Faldo Series has announced that it will return to Laguna Lăng Cô in Da Nang, Vietnam, for the next four years as it names the resort the “Home of the Faldo Series Asia”.

After a three-year pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the course will host the 15th edition of the Faldo Series Asia Grand Final from April 19-21. The best junior golfers from over 22 countries in Asia will come to Laguna Lăng Cô hoping and vie to be crowned champion of Asia as they test their skills against Sir Nick Faldo’s Signature designed course.

Boys and girls aged between 12 and 21 compete throughout the year in the Faldo Series Asia for World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) points and the chance to meet 6-time major champion Faldo at the Grand Final. As well as competing for the coveted title of Faldo Series Asia Grand Final Champion, the junior players will also attend several coaching clinics by the English golf legend at the Laguna Golf Academy.

Laguna Lăng Co’s award-winning golf course offers a unique combination of ocean views, jungle, streams, mountainside boulders and rice paddies. The par-71 layout was awarded the title of Vietnam’s Best Golf Course in 2019 and Best Golf Resort in 2022, while the resort continues to achieve EarthCheck Gold certification as part of its commitment to protecting the future.

Players and their families will also get to sample everything that Laguna Lăng Co has to offer, including both the Banyan Tree Villas and Angsana Lang Co hotels that were both listed on Conde Nast’s Top 20 Resorts in Asia list. Both hotels are located a short walk from the golf course, as well as numerous activities such as water sports that are available on the 3km beach that borders the entire resort.

“I could not be more excited to be returning to Laguna Lăng Co for another four years of the Faldo Series Asia Grand Final”, said Faldo from his new home in Montana. “It has been three years since I was back, the upgrades to the course are really taking shape, every time I host the Asia Grand Final there it never fails to create a spectacular event and I am excited to welcome all the players back.

"It is the perfect location, with my signature designed course, world-class hotels and excellent practice facilities and of course the Banyan Tree Spa, it is hard to beat this resort”.

Adam Calver, Director of Golf & Destination Marketing at Laguna Lăng Co, said: “We are honoured to be the “Home of the Faldo Series Asia” until 2026. Having the Asia Final returning for the next four years is a testament to our dedication to providing equal opportunities for the next generation of golfer in Asia.

"Hosting the Faldo Series Asia Grand Final is our favourite event each year, watching the players, both boys and girls from across Asia compete for the title of Asia’s Champion is exhilarating, the Faldo Series changes lives for so many young players around the world and we are proud to be a part of that.”
