The Club hosted the Shell's Wonderful World of Golf and the U.S. LPGA mixed pro-am that feature the American Women's pro circuit.

Club Intramuros Golf Course
Club Intramuros is only par-60, 3,065 (3,352 yards) layout, but it can be a real test of your short game with either water, out-of-bounds, or both on nearly every hole. A big plus for Intramuros is that it can easily be played in just two hours, making it ideal for that early morning or late afternoon game
Construction of the course started in 1907, this course is part and parcel of the bright history of the game in the country. It is one of the oldest today. Its principal challenge lies in no less than water holes, mostly short but testy nonetheless because it demands precision to play them. Good greens that bite.
