So, I have this theory about why pro golfers don’t usually come to play the Asian Tour, especially in Southeast Asia. Picture this: They get off the plane, and the moment they step outside, they’re greeted by a wall of humidity so thick you could slice it with a 9-iron. Their neatly pressed polo shirts? Instantly transformed into sweat-soaked messes. 😅

Then there’s the wildlife. Sure, they’re used to gators in Florida, but Southeast Asia takes it up a notch. Imagine trying to line up a perfect shot, and a monkey swings down to snatch your ball. Not to mention the monitor lizards that casually stroll across the fairway like they’re the real tournament stars. 🦎🐒

And let’s not forget the food. The pros are probably used to mid-round snacks like bananas or protein bars, but here? They’re handed a plate of fiery tom yum soup. One spoonful in, and suddenly they’re seeing double on the green because their taste buds are in a full-blown crisis. 🌶🔥

Then there’s the real challenge: tropical thunderstorms that can appear out of nowhere. One minute it’s sunny and calm, and the next minute, it’s like a monsoon is trying to wash away the entire course. Try sinking a putt while dodging raindrops the size of golf balls. ☔️

So, yeah, maybe they’re just a bit scared. Or maybe they know we’ve got the home-field advantage—if we can handle the lizards, the heat, and the spice, a little sand trap is nothing! 🌞
