MANILA, Philippines — Chanelle Avaricio hopes to cash in on her fine form as she shoots for a sweep of the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour’s Visayan swing when the ICTSI Iloilo Golf Challenge begins tomorrow at the Iloilo Golf and Country Club.

Avaricio turned a losing stand into a winning act as she rallied from eight strokes down in the final round to nip Sarah Ababa by one in last week’s Negros Occidental Golf Classic, putting her on track for another prolific season after racking up three victories last year.

The Alabama State U product will also play in the Pattaya Ladies Open in Thailand next week, along with other Filipina players, and in the US.

“I’ll play just a couple of tournaments here and head to the Thai LPGA where I have some events coming,” said Avaricio.
