Manitoba

Five clubs - St Charles, Pine Ridge, Norwood, Winnipeg Hunt Club and Elmhurst - were all included at the very first session of the Manitoba Golf Association in 1915 seven years prior to the time when women in the province created the province's own body to govern themselves, called the Manitoba Ladies Golf Association. Both associations served their members for over 80 years, until they amalgamated in 2004 and formed Golf Manitoba. Manitoba isn't overflowing with golf courses of high quality, however Pine Ridge is one of them. Pine Ridge, one of the province's oldest clubs is a Tom Bendelow-style layout which was renovated in 1919 by Donald Ross when he visited Winnipeg in 1919. The course is often regarded as one of Manitoba's top 18-hole courses.

  2. Pine Ridge Golf Club

    The prairie province of Manitoba is not overflowing with quality golf courses but Pine Ridge Golf Club is worthy of inclusion in the upper echelons of the national rankings.

  5. Falcon Lake

    Manitoba, Canada

    Laid out within a heavily forested landscape, the tight fairways of the Falcon Lake golf course present golfers with one of the region’s toughest golfing tests.

  6. Granite Hills

    Manitoba, Canada

    Granite Hills Golf Club lies within a 320-acre property on the shores of Lac du Bonnet. Plans for the layout were drawn up in 1983 but it took another twenty-four years before the course opened for play.

  7. Quarry Oaks is a 27-hole golf facility featuring three distinct nines, with the Quarry and Oak loops comprising the original course – that’s not to say the newer Desert nine should be disregarded as it’s a fine alternative option.
