Lia Duque showcased the impact of her international experience by carding a 77 under challenging conditions, establishing a formidable nine-stroke lead over Rafa Anciano in the girls’ premier category at the ICTSI JPGT Luzon Series 5 at the Luisita Golf and Country Club here Tuesday, Aug. 20.
TARLAC – Duque demonstrated her mastery of the demanding course with a round featuring two birdies and five bogeys, despite a double-bogey on the 14th hole. Her performance was underscored by birdies on the par-5 fifth and 12th holes.
Although she encountered some difficulty on the 14th hole due to a misjudged hybrid approach and a strong chip shot, her overall performance placed her well ahead in the 16-18 division, determined to build on her runner-up finish from the series’ kickoff at Splendido Taal last May. Zach Villaroman faltered with an 81 after a remarkable frontside 37, while Francis Slavin and Rafael Mañaol matched 82s.
Venus delos Santos led the girls’ youngest category with an 80, four shots ahead of Athena Serapio, who turned in an 84, while Mindanao series finalist Mavis Espedido scored a 91. Tyra Garingalao and Amiya Tablac struggled with 99 and 122, respectively. In the girls’ 13-15 category, Precious Zaragosa took a four-stroke lead with a 72, marked by three birdies against three bogeys, despite struggling with the greens.
