St Andrews International School Bangkok is always proud of all the achievements of our students but we would like to highlight here the phenomenal success of one of our younger students in golf.

This student saw golfing trophies won by her father and grandfather at home and wanted to get in on the action. Her idol is Pro Areeya Juthanugarn (Pro May) who inspires her in all her training and tournaments.

This young lady has gone from strength to strength and two years ago started travelling to the US to participate in international golf tournaments and her results have been out of this world. In 2017 she won the Kinnaree Trophy, the Sports Recognition Award of Thailand. This year alone she qualified to represent Thailand at the IMG Junior World Championship and the FCG Callaway World Championship both of which will be held in California. In March, she won the Future Junior Thailand competition and qualified for the AMG Thailand Junior Golf Tour. She also finished second overall at this year’s FOBISIA Golf Tournament held at Black Mountain, Hua Hin. Her list of golfing achievements is very impressive and has been steadily growing. We are delighted that she is part of our growing Flames Golf team and while she is a shy girl, her friends and the school environment are helping her gain confidence in her English skills.
