The course at Luisita Golf and Country Club was the first designed in the Philippines by Robert Trent Jones Senior back in 1967 and it lies to the north of Manila on an extensive estate that is run by a family related to the late President of the Philippines, Cory Aquino.
Named after the wife of Don Antonio Lopez, head of the Tabacalera company that previously owned the property, the Hacienda Luisita estate extends to over 16,000 acres, a small portion of which has been devoted to the fairways of the golf course.
As might be anticipated of a Trent Jones course, water plays a large part in proceedings here and a winding creek and several lakes ensure that golfers have to contend with water hazards at no fewer than eleven of the holes on the scorecard.
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
