The Philippines has consistently earned its place on the global stage, this time, in the world of golf. With courses that meet international standards in design and experience, the country continues to make its mark.

Anvaya Cove Golf and Sports Club is the latest to gain international attention. Its steady climb in the rankings reflects thoughtful design, environmental care, and a guest experience that blends sport with leisure. In the 2025 Top 100 Golf Courses Asia list, it ranks 15th overall, the highest placement for any course in Southeast Asia.
