          This year's biggest Sporting Event in Cagayan de Oro City is just a huge success! Being the most prestigious and the country's most attended golf tournament, it has been attended by more than 700 Participants of 167 teams of Senior's and Men's Regular Division from USA, Canada, Australia, Japan, Middle East and of course the Philippines. The Del Monte Golf Club is the Overall Championship Winner for the Regular Men's Division and the Canlubang Golf Club for the Seniors' Division.
        This Philippine Airlines crucial event of Sports was held from February 17 to 26, 2011. It is the oldest continuous golf team tournament in the country and has been called the "de facto" national club championship of the country for it is here that the critical mass of golf clubs annually send their best players to compete for the coveted overall championship trophy.  This de facto tag is more an indictment of the state of Philippine Golf because there is no other tournament that exists with this format since it shows that no efforts have been made by National Golf Association of the Philippines or anybody else to organize anything that can be called a truly national golf team championship.
     It is every 3 years that Cagayan de Oro's the event place of the tournament - in Pueblo de Oro and Del Monte in Bukidnon! The Awards Night for Men's Division were attended by Government Officials .: City Councilor Ramon G. Tabor of Cagayan de Oro City and Provincial Governor Alex Calingasan of Bukidnon.
