Voted one of the 100 most beautiful courses in the world and number one in the Asian subcontinent, the par 73, 6,933-yard championship course was designed in 1997 by the internationally acclaimed golf course architect Donald Steel to U.S.P.G.A. standards.

The VGCR Club Championship tournament is one of the most prestigious club events and is a Board Event at Victoria Golf and Country Resort. Members from all over the country and from overseas will be vying for the title of ‘Club Champion’ at the annual club championship. The two-day 18-hole event will test the ability of all players and ensure that a worthy champion emerges.
