MANILA, Philippines — Promising golfers from the Visayas and Mindanao have set their sights on a top finish in the ICTSI Junior PGT National Match Play Finals beginning on Oct. 2 at The Country Club in Laguna.
While Luzon finalists in the 13-15 age category may have a slight advantage due to their familiarity with the course, their counterparts from the Visayas and Mindanao are equally determined to prove their mettle.
Posing as serious threats to Luzon golfers like Precious Zaragosa, Levonne Talion and twin sisters Mona and Lisa Sarines are Cebu’s Rane Chiu, Davaoeña Johanna Uyking, Cagayan de Oro’s Zero Plete and Gen. Santos native Alexie Gabi.
The boys’ 13-15 will also be tight with Visayas qualifiers Nyito Tiongko and Inno Flores, and Mindanao finalists Clement Ordeneza and AJ Wacan crowding Luzon’s John Paul Agustin Jr., Jose Carlos Taruc, John Majgen Gomez and Matthias Espina.
