Tien Phong Golf Championship 2025 is a meaningful sporting event organized by Tien Phong Newspaper, aiming to celebrate the 72nd anniversary of Tien Phong Newspaper's founding (November 16, 1953 - November 16, 2025). The tournament is not only a playground for golf lovers but also has a noble goal: to promote and raise funds for the activities of the Vietnam Young Talent Support Fund.
Established in 1993, the Vietnam Young Talent Support Fund has always accompanied young talents in the cause of building and defending the Fatherland, discovering, encouraging and supporting talented youth in many fields.
Through financial resources mobilized from activities, including the Tien Phong Golf Championship, the Fund has awarded tens of billions of VND in scholarships, bonuses and support to hundreds of outstanding groups and individuals in study, scientific research, start-ups, production, security - defense, culture, sports and volunteer activities.
Speaking at the ceremony, Editor-in-Chief of Tien Phong Newspaper, journalist Phung Cong Suong said: "The golf tournament for young talents, initiated by Tien Phong Newspaper, is a prestigious sports playground as well as a meaningful charity activity when sports are associated with social responsibility, adding resources to the Vietnam Young Talent Support Fund.
The Golf Championship for young talents has joined the flow of professional golf in Vietnam, thereby showing the prestige of the tournament, while affirming its role in discovering, nurturing and inspiring young Vietnamese golfers.
This year, the 9th Tien Phong Golf Championship – Swing for young talents will officially take place on November 15 at Legend Valley Country Club (Ninh Binh), gathering 144 domestic and international golfers to compete. Notably, this is the first time Tien Phong Newspaper has cooperated with BRG Group to bring the tournament “For young Vietnamese talents” to the ancient capital after 8 consecutive seasons held at Kings' Island Golf Resort (Dong Mo, Son Tay (old), Hanoi ).
Golfers will be divided into 5 groups including A, B, C, D (women) and Young Talent group, competing in stroke play format with NET points calculated according to Handicap System 36. The championship title (Best Gross) will be awarded to the golfer with the best total score (Gross) on the competition day.
The organizers also offer many incentives to young athletes: golfers who have won the Tien Phong Golf Championship, won the National Golf Championship or led age groups at the VGA Junior Tour will be exempted from entry fees; golfers under 18 years old who are not in the above groups will be supported with 60% of the competition fee.
This year's Hole in One (HIO) prize is considered the most attractive ever, with prizes being luxury cars including Volvo XC60 Ultra, Geely Monjaro and Lynk & Co 09 placed at holes 4, 6 and 11 of Legend Valley Country Club.
Since its inception in 1997, Tien Phong Golf Championship has become a prestigious tournament, gathering a large number of golfers of all ages, contributing to the strong development of the Vietnamese youth golf movement. If the first season, the championship belonged to a mature golfer, then from the second season onwards, the gold cup was consecutively awarded to outstanding young golfers - proving the influence of the tournament and the effectiveness of the Vietnam Young Talent Support Fund in nurturing and discovering talents.
Among the notable champions, Nguyen Anh Minh – who won the Tien Phong Golf Championship in 2021 – is currently the number 1 amateur golfer in Vietnam (ranked 44th in the world). After this first title, Anh Minh continued to affirm his class with an individual bronze medal and a team silver medal at the 32nd SEA Games in 2023, along with the championships of the Lexus Challenge 2022 and the National Golf Tournament 2022.
In addition, Nguyen Nhat Long – the 2020 champion – also left his mark when he won the National Amateur Championship (VAO) and the 2023 National Championship, before entering the professional path. Anh Minh, Nhat Long and other excellent golfers will compete in this meaningful tournament.
The Tien Phong Golf Championship – Swing for young talents 2025 is not only an attractive sports playground but also a bridge to spread the spirit of social responsibility, providing more resources for the young generation of Vietnam on the journey to reach the pinnacle of knowledge, sports and aspirations to contribute to the country.
