LIA DUQUE and Mark Kobayashi ended the International Container Terminal Services Inc. Junior Philippine Golf Tour Luzon Series 5 just as they began it—in dominant form—to finally clinch their first victories in the 16-18 division after a series of close calls.
The grueling week, which saw Duque battle sweltering heat and post rounds of 77, 85 and 83, earned her 15 points, boosting her bid for a spot in the Match Play Championship in the premier category.“This win means a lot to me because in the recent JPGT events, I haven’t been performing as well as I wanted,” said Duque, who finished second at Splendido Taal and third at Pradera Verde before heading to the US to further refine her game.
In the boys’ side, Kobayashi also cruised to victory, carding an 82 to secure a six-stroke win over Zachary Villaroman, finishing with a 306 total. “I had three third-place finishes, so I’m really happy to finally secure this win. I enjoy the experience here in JPGT,” said the 18-year-old student from the School of Tomorrow in Parañaque.
The final tally for the Luzon series will consider the top four results across the seven-leg series, with the top four players securing spots in the Match Play finals, scheduled from October 1 to 4 at The Country Club in Laguna.
