Philippines Golf Courses

According to the Golf Around the World report published by the R & A in 2019, there are 125 golf facilities in the Philippines, but only around half are registered with the National Golf Association of the Philippines. We’re unclear why so many Filipino golfing facilities remain unregistered with the National Golf Association. A possible reason for this is that many facilities slot into the resort category and therefore golf is purely for tourists. Another theory, tabled by Mark, suggested that clubs don’t get enough from the affiliation with the National Association. If you know more we’d love to hear from you.
