The 'jade girls' of Vietnam's golf village

TPO - The 2025 Gia Lai National Golf Championship kicked off in a vibrant and exciting atmosphere. Not only witnessing the fierce competition of golfers, the opening day also became especially brilliant with the presence of talented and beautiful "beauties".

As one of the familiar faces of Vietnamese women's golf, Khue Minh entered the tournament with confidence and courage.

Khue Minh won the National Golf Championship in 2022, her first season joining VGA Tour. At that time, the girl born in 2003 overcame many strong opponents to step onto the highest podium.

Khue Minh has just finished her study abroad trip and returned home with great determination. Her return to the National Golf Championship this year promises to bring many expectations and is worth the wait.

At only 17 years old, Le Chuc An has created a miracle by becoming the first golfer in history to successfully defend the National Golf Championship title (2023 and 2024).

Not only has she been a mainstay of the national women's team for many years, Chuc An is also a typical face of the young generation of Vietnamese golfers with a persistent competitive spirit and aspiration to reach international level.

Entering the 2025 National Golf Championship, Chuc An aims to not only defend her title but also improve her score compared to the previous two years, thereby consolidating her position in the Vietnamese women's golf community. If she continues to win in Gia Lai this year, Chuc An will become the first golfer to win the National Golf Championship three times in a row, an unprecedented record.

Nguyen Thao My, from a promising young talent of the National team, has now become a professional golfer with a strong playing style and sharp tactical thinking.

Thao My has an impressive list of achievements: 3 consecutive years of winning the National Youth Championship (2014 - 2016), 3 times winning the National Women's Amateur Championship (2014, 2015, 2019), and the Lexus Challenge 2022 championship.

With a solid background of domestic and international competition, Thao My still proves her mettle as an experienced golfer.

Ngo Bao Nghi, one of the first generation of female golfers to bring Vietnam to the international arena. She made a strong impression with 3 consecutive years of winning the National Women's Amateur Championship (2009 - 2011), and also holds the record of 6 consecutive times winning the National Youth Championship (2008 - 2013).

Bao Nghi's goal at this year's tournament is to experience and challenge herself. She shared: "Although my training time is limited and my physical strength is not as good as before, I still want to step onto the field, compete and conquer new limits."

At only 14 years old, Nguyen Viet Gia Han has participated in the National Golf Championship for the fourth consecutive time. From being the youngest girl in the tournament, Gia Han has gradually affirmed her talent and courage, becoming the runner-up in 2024.

Sharing about this year's season's goal, Gia Han said: "Last year I came in second, this year of course I want to do better. But for me, achievement is not the final destination. Each title is just a milestone on the long journey to conquer my dream. The important thing is to practice and improve every day."

Unlike the maturity of experienced golfers, Than Bao Nghi brings a youthful, innocent but equally determined color. This small but ambitious girl is gradually asserting her position in the women's golf world, ready to continue writing a new story at this year's tournament.

Nguyen Vu Hoang Anh is one of the golfers leading the women's rankings of the National Golf Championship - Gia Lai 2025 on the first day of competition. With a stable playing style, solid shots and a strong competitive mentality, Hoang Anh is also a notable name in the championship race.
