Nakhon nayok: Twenty young golfers have been selected to represent the first region in the Thai Domestic Power 2026 project, a comprehensive sports promotion initiative aimed at nurturing promising sports talent in Thailand.
According to Thai News Agency, the project is a collaborative effort between the Ladies Professional Golf Association of Thailand and the Golf Association of Thailand, with support from the National Sports Development Fund and the Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT). This initiative underscores a commitment to developing a high-standard youth golf program and aims to propel athletes to professional and international competitions. The first regional qualifying round took place at Royal Hills Golf Resort and Spa in Nakhon Nayok province, where 20 young golfers from each region were selected to join the project.
The selected athletes include 13 female golfers, such as Nawaporn Suntriphas, Erisa Bindhachit (Am), and Kalayarak Pongpithanont (Am), and seven male golfers, including Jaided Phromsakhana Na Sakon Nakhon (Am), Thanapoom Suphamitrsiri (Am), and Chanunwit Chotiwutworawet (Am).
