The 2015 Honda LPGA Thailand is underway at the Siam CC Old Course this week. Here's a look at the first round highlights.

The greens are Novotek bermudagrass, and the fairways are seashore paspalum. They look great. And the players are making lots of birdies and even eagles on these smooth greens.

At Siam CC, there are 3 courses on adjacent property. The Old Course, closest to Pattaya, down the valley to the Waterside Course, and up the other side of the valley to the 27 hole Plantation Course.

On March 10, the Waterside Course will host the Asian Turfgrass Field Day -- preview here. This is part of the Sustainable Turfgrass Management in Asia 2015 conference. Also, on March 12, conference delegates have the chance to play golf at either the Plantation (host venue for the 2015 Thailand Open) or the Waterside Course at a special conference delegate rate.
