MANILA, Philippines: In contemplation of what could have been in the absence of the pandemic, local golf has not only weathered the storm but has also flourished, evolving into a dynamic multi-circuit with the addition of the Philippine Golf Tour Asia.

But the three section-tour, comprising the PGT, the Ladies PGT and the foreign-laced PGTA, faced an abrupt halt during the global health crisis. However, the post-pandemic era witnessed a remarkable resurgence, marked by 10 flourishing tournaments, both in the PGT and LPGT, held across the country's various championship courses.
