After the trophy presentation, Her Majesty travelled by royal electric cart to the All Thailand Golf Centre, where Her Majesty observed junior golfers practising long- and short-range putting on the practice green.
Her Majesty then proceeded to the High Performance Centre on the first floor to observe swing analysis for female professional golfers and national team golfers practising shots from different distances at the driving bays. Her Majesty later visited the second floor of the High Performance Centre to view advanced motion-analysis technology for female professional golfers.
The Queen’s Cup Thailand Championship is held in honour of His Majesty the King and Her Majesty the Queen, reflecting their support for athletes and sport in Thailand.
The royal trophy bestowed by Her Majesty the Queen is regarded as a prestigious symbol of honour and achievement for Thai golfers. It reflects the dedication and perseverance required throughout a professional golf career and serves as encouragement for professional golfers, national athletes, junior players, sports personnel and all sectors working to develop Thai golf.
The Professional Golf Association of Thailand has continued to raise tournament standards and develop Thai golfers, many of whom have gone on to compete internationally, including on the Asian Tour, DP World Tour, PGA Tour and at the Olympic Games.
The Queen’s Cup Thailand Championship is therefore not only a tournament to determine a champion, but also a learning platform for young golfers. It gives junior players the opportunity to experience a national-level tournament, meet professional golfers and learn about the preparation, discipline and standards required to pursue a professional career.
