MANILA, Philippines — Junior golfers are preparing for a decisive showdown for spots in the ICTSI JPGT Match Play Championship, aiming to secure not just a strong start but a dominant finish in the Luzon Series 6 at Mount Malarayat Golf and Country Club in Lipa City, Batangas.
The penultimate leg of the seven-stage regional series kicks off on Monday at the host club’s composite course, where intense competition is expected across four age divisions in both the boys’ and girls’ categories. All participants are vying for top honors and valuable ranking points to boost their standings.
The eight champions from last week’s Series 5 at Luisita will be part of the action, each determined to secure repeat victories and solidify their bids for the national finals scheduled Oct. 1-4 at The Country Club in Laguna.
These include Isonn Angheng and Venus delos Santos in the 8-9 age group, Aerin Chan in the girls’ 10-12 division, Jose Carlos Taruc and Precious Zaragosa in the 13-15 bracket, and Mark Kobayashi and Lia Duque in the 16-18 category.
