PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet is a golf course owned by Nova Group, the second largest real estate developer in Vietnam. Nova Group operates over 10 hotels and resorts, as well as approximately 18,000 villas and various other amenities. Since its opening in 2021, PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet was ranked number one among must-visit golf courses in Vietnam for 2023 by GolfLux, a golf specialty journal. The Ocean Course, the only PGA-standard certified course in Vietnam, stretches 7,400 yards.

Woori Golf will begin operating the PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet Golf Course starting in October. They plan to organize familiarization tours targeting members of their own service, the ‘12000 Club.’ Various member benefits will be enhanced, including early bird promotions and services linked with prestigious domestic golf courses.

Chairman Bui Tan Nhan said, "This is a great opportunity to learn about Korean golf culture and operational know-how," and added, "We expect that Woori Golf’s marketing and operational capabilities will help the golf course become better known to many Koreans." Chairman Yeom Gye-ryong promised, "We will provide a world-class experience that has not been felt in existing Southeast Asian golf."

Woori Golf was established in 1993 as Korea’s first specialized golf membership recruitment company. Since then, it has conducted golf-related marketing for over 90 golf courses and resorts. The company continues to grow steadily, having hosted Korea’s first gala dinner show, operated its own golf team, secured exclusive overseas golf course operations, and launched the golf hole-in-one total membership ‘12000 Club.’
