Jaraula steals show in Bacolod
MURCIA, Negros Occidental, Philippines — Reymon Jaraula stormed past his rivals early then fended off Angelo Que’s late surge en route to closing-round 68 and a one-stroke victory in the ICTSI Bacolod Golf Challenge here on Friday.
The win marked Jaraula’s third Philippine Golf Tour title, a testament to his mettle and ability to execute under pressure with a huge par on the 18th hold
“I never doubted I could save that par,” said Jaraula in Filipino, who secured the victory with a 16-under 264 total, earning him P440,000.
Que, starting the day five shots back, birdied four of the last six holes to finish with a 64 and 15-under 265 total worth P287,500. Two flights behind the leader, Que’s rally forced Jaraula to dig deep, as any slip on the final hole could have led to a playoff.
Hyun Ho Rho birdied the last hole and finished with a 66 to claim solo third at 266 (P160,000).
