Teeing Off in Thailand: Vedaansh Jain Bags Back-to-Back Golf Titles

November 7, 2026

Two mornings, two gold medals. On 26 and 27 October 2026, Vedaansh Jain of Grade 5-C walked off the fairways of Black Mountain Golf Club in Hua Hin, Thailand, a champion twice over at the U.S. Kids Golf Thailand Local Tour Championship.

In the final tour event, he shot a stunning three-under-par 69 on a par-72 course. Then came the real test of nerve: a playoff for the overall tour title in the Boys Under-11 category. Calm and focused, Vedaansh edged past his closest rival to lift the championship.

It is the latest chapter in a remarkable run. Earlier this year he won the JGTC International Junior Golf Championship at Lakewood Golf and Country Club in Samut Prakan, Thailand, and in earlier seasons he triumphed in the IGU North Zone Sub-Junior and Junior Feeder Tour 2024 series. His latest win even made the pages of The Tribune on 1 November.

Congratulations, Vedaansh! The whole SFHS family is cheering you on. Keep swinging high!
