But if there is one thing that gets every single one going, it is the competition.<\/p>\n<p>The structure and format of the <a href=\"https:\/\/teamam.golftripz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ballantine\u2019s Team-Am Golf Challenge<\/a> allow both individual and team competitions to co-exist, something rare to find in a golf tournament. And with so many prizes and honours up for grabs, it is almost impossible that you will not find yourself wound up just a little.<\/p>\n<p>And there\u2019s no harm in that, particularly when it happens over a spectacular hole, for a Closest to Pin Challenge or when you know you have to make a par on a handpicked world-class hole to contribute to your team\u2019s cause. The Ballantine\u2019s Team-Am Golf Challenge is all about the golf and the golf courses in a different location each year. The previous 8 editions have travelled to distinct locations in Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, and Cambodia.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2451 size-full\" title=\"SIAM COUNTRY CLUB- OLD COURSE, PATTAYA\" src=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SIAM-COUNTRY-CLUB-1.jpg\" alt=\"SIAM COUNTRY Golf CLUB\" width=\"770\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SIAM-COUNTRY-CLUB-1.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SIAM-COUNTRY-CLUB-1-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/SIAM-COUNTRY-CLUB-1-768x349.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The 9th edition comes back to Thailand, but in Pattaya for the first time.
