Welcome to Panama Guide Panama Senior Amateur Golf Association Second Tournament Reminder![]() Second Panama Senior Golf Tournament - 14 March 2012![]() ![]() Panama Senior Amateur Golf Association Tournament at Tucan Golf & Country Club![]() There Are Twelve Golf Courses in Panama![]() RFI: Golf Courses in Panama![]() ![]() New Courses Opened: I have to admit that since I sat down behind this computer screen about six years ago, my time in a golf cart has dwindled down to practically zero. And that's a bad thing. I'm going to start getting out there more often to swing by club and whack my balls, and will be doing a review and an article on each of the golf courses currently open in Panama as content for the website. If you really want to play a lot of golf most of the courses are located either near Panama City or along the Pacific coast up near Coronado. And, there are new courses planned and opening all the time. So, for now it will have to suffice to say that there are lots of courses and many opportunities to play golf in Panama. What's more, from Panama it's relatively easy to hop to other close by places such as Colombia and play courses there as well. That's the short answer. The long answer will be coming over the "course" of the next few weeks and months. Fore! Copyright 2010 by Don Winner for Panama-Guide.com.

Nationwide Tour ready for big international schedule![]() Istmian National Golf Championship Returns to Panama![]() By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - Received today via email from Bob Askew: "am happy to announce that the Isthmian National Golf Championship returns to Panama in May.

The premier course around Panama City is Club de Golf de Panama (http://www.clubgolf.com.pa) in the Cierro Viento area out towards Tocumen airport. Panama Golf Club has a long, rich history and is the venue of the PGA Nationwide event (Movistar Panama Championship) each year in late January. Due to the association with the PGA, the course has been and is being systematically upgraded. The main scope of work is rebuilding greens and bunkers, but #14 was lengthened by about 80 yards and made into a real par 4. They've rebuilt about half the greens on the course, averaging 2-3 a year. New #6 green will open soon followed by #2. The upgrades have been very good, with designs by the PGA experts. Rather than the old-style big sloping greens, the new ones have specific target areas that reward good approach shots with level, makeable putts.
