South Forbes Golf City is a residential and golf development located in Santa Rosa, Laguna, in the Greater Manila area of the Philippines. The course was developed by International Management Group (IMG), a firm with extensive experience in golf course design and resort development across Asia. The layout reflects contemporary design principles suited to the tropical Philippine climate and the site's terrain. The course is integrated into a master-planned community that combines residential properties with recreational facilities. Like many modern courses in the region, South Forbes is designed to accommodate both member play and resort guests, serving the growing golf market in the Manila metropolitan area. The routing takes advantage of the site's natural topography and incorporates water features typical of Philippine course design, where irrigation and drainage management are essential elements. The course sits within the broader context of Laguna's established golf corridor, which includes several other notable layouts. South Forbes appeals to both local players and visitors seeking accessible golf near Manila. The development reflects the trend of integrating golf courses into mixed-use communities rather than operating as standalone clubs, a model that has become increasingly common in Southeast Asian golf development over the past two decades.
