What to pack when attending the tournament
Preparing for the Centara World Masters in Hua Hin requires careful packing to ensure comfort and performance both on and off the golf course. Here is a breakdown to ensure you have everything you need:
- Golf equipment: bring your own golf equipment if possible as rental equipment may be unfamiliar to you and affect your play, and large crowds can also lead to running out of clubs to rent.
- Attire: Choose stretchy, sweat-wicking clothing as June in Thailand is quite hot and humid. Also, bring a foldable umbrella to guard against sudden rain showers. Early mornings and evenings in Hua Hin can be quite cool so bring a light jacket.
- Sun protection: In addition to items such as sunscreen, sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat, you can prepare a cool towel to help cool down your body temperature if the weather is too hot. Wet it before starting your round and store it in a ziplock bag between uses.
