2021 All Thailand Golf Tour Special Qualifying School
All Thailand Golf Tour 7/F, Supreme Complex, 1024 Samsen Road, Dusit, Bangkok 10300, Thailand Tel: + (662) 667-4250 Fax: + (662) 667-4252 2021 ALL THAILAND GOLF TOUR SPECIAL QUALIFYING SCHOOL Closing Date for Applications 21 December 2020 (4:00 PM, Thailand time) Due to the Coronavirus outbreak 2019 (COVID-19), the All Thailand Golf Tour has extended all 2020 eligible members' tournament exemptions to exercise their exemptions in the 2021 season. As a result of this decision, the regular annual Q-School for the year 2021 was dismissed. However, the All Thailand Golf Tour is also responsible for the development of golf. The All Thailand Golf Tour has therefore ascertained that players should also have continuity in competition. Thus we concluded that the Special Q-School was necessary to provide a few possibilities for players that without this Special Q- School, would be underdeveloped without any Membership Exemption Categories opportunities at all for the 2021 season. This Special Q-School will provide limited space to include players with no Member Exemption Categories or those with Member Exemption Categories but want to improve their Exemption Categories. Those that participate in this Special Q-School will be eligible to apply to compete in the All Thailand Golf Tour in 2021. Players who score the best, up to 5 people, in the competition will be eligible to be a member of All Thailand Golf Tour Membership Exemption Category 15. Subsequent players will be eligible to be members of the All Thailand Golf Tour under the Membership Exemption Category 23. The Membership Exemption Categories 15 and 23 are appended after the last member of the 2020 membership, in the respective categories (details of all membership types are in Appendix 1).

The 21-year-old Thai displayed great form all week as he traded two birdies against as many bogeys on Sunday to secure his wire-to-wire Asian Development Tour (ADT) victory on 18- under-par 262 total at Laguna Golf Phuket. Compatriot Pawin Ingkhapradit returned with an impressive 66, but he was unable to overhaul Varanyu's lead. He took second-place on his own at the 2 million (approx.
