Del Rosario eyes another Taiwan title

MANILA, Philippines — Pauline del Rosario is eager to make her mark again in Taiwan as she heads to the Party Ladies Open, aiming to build on her past successes and redeem herself after a joint sixth-place finish last year.

The NT$5 million, 54-hole championship, part of the LPGA of Taiwan (TLPGA) series, will be held at the Lily Golf and Country Club in Hsinchu County, beginning Nov. 13.

“I’m looking forward to playing in Taiwan. I have great memories there and am excited to compete with many top Asian players,” said Del Rosario, recalling her 2017 victory in the TLPGA and Royal Open, where she became the first Filipina to win on the TLPGA circuit.

That year, she also dominated the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour (LPGT), clinching four titles and earning the prestigious Order of Merit.
