MANILA, Philippines — All but one of the six division winners from the kickoff leg of the ICTSI Junior PGT Visayas-Mindanao Series will be back in action, aiming to sustain momentum and secure back-to-back titles in the second leg scheduled May 14 at the Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club in Bacolod City.

Leading the charge are Brittany Tamayo and Tashanah Balangauan, who asserted their dominance in the girls’ 11-14 and 15-18 categories, respectively, at the Mactan Island Golf Course. Tamayo, a 13-year-old standout from Notre Dame of Marbel University, rallied from a one-stroke deficit after 18 holes and stormed to a five-shot victory over Zuri Bagaloyos with a closing 73 in the 36-hole tournament.

“I know I can do more,” said Tamayo, who was one of the JPGT Match Play champions last year. Her relentless drive is powered by inner motivation and a mindset built on discipline, focus, self-confidence and a strong work ethic – traits she hopes will guide her to more triumphs in the Pilipinas Golf Tournaments Inc.organized series.
