HA NOI (Biz Hub) — Viet Nam's BRG Group and Nicklaus Design, a member of the American Nicklaus Group, on February 4 signed an exclusive contract to design and develop golf courses in Viet Nam.

According to the contract, the BRG Group will develop golf courses designed by Nicklaus Design in 22 provinces in Viet Nam.

The first golf course to be built under the contract will be an 18-hole golf course, branded Jack Nicklaus II, in BRG Kings Island Golf Resort in Ha Noi's Son Tay District.

BRG and the Nicklaus Group have been partners for years. They signed a strategic co-operation deal in Ha Noi in July last year to take the local golf and golfing industry to a new height.

The two side's projects include the Legend Hill Golf Resort and the Jack Nicklaus Academy, a golf training institution in Ha Noi's Soc Son District.

Nicklaus Design was founded by American golf legend Jack Nicklaus, who has won 18 major championships and has 25 years of experience in golf training.

The company operates 390 golf courses in 41 countries in the world.

BRG Group invests and operates mainly in the fields of finance, banking and golf resorts. — VNS
