Philippine Open (golf)

History
The Philippine Open was first held in Caloocan in 1913 and was sponsored by the Manila Golf Club. It was moved to the Wack Wack Golf and Country Club in 1935. In the late 1980s, the National Golf Association of the Philippines took over the organization of the tournament and held it in other courses in the country.The event was held in a variety of different golf courses around the Philippines and was an official money event on the Asian Tour from 1999 to 2015, having previously been a founding tournament on the Asia Golf Circuit. In March 2006 the NGAP granted all marketing rights for the tournament from 2006 to 2010 to the Asian Tour, which announced an aspiration to increase the prize fund from the 2006 level of US$200,000 to $1 million. In 2014, the prize fund was $300,000.
The 1967 event included a full-field of 160 players.
