Baguio On Guinness World Record For Golf

Baguio City, the summer capital of the Philippines is targeting the Guinness World Record for most golfers gathered in an event. The 59th Fil-Am International Golf Tournament will start on November 19, 2008 and ends in December 6, 2008 in Camp John Hay and Baguio Country Club.

Last year, there are 1,200 golfers from all over the world joined the tournament. The said event just like the annual Panagbenga Flower Festival every February drew crowds and expecting to draw more this year. The participants of the tournament are mostly from the Asia-Pacific region, they will surely enjoy the two week tournament activities. According to Anthony de Leon, general manager of the Baguio Country Club, the Fil-Am tournament is the “longest and largest” in the amateur class.

The event will surely beat their own record to Guinness. :wink:
