Singson seeks Binitin turnaround

MANILA, Philippines — Mafy Singson is aiming for a strong rebound following a shaky campaign the last time out as she returns to action in the ICTSI Bacolod Golf Challenge unfolding tomorrow at the challenging Binitin course in Murcia.

After an uncharacteristic start in the previous LPGT leg at Caliraya Springs – where she opened with a 75 before firing back-to-back 71s to finish in joint seventh – Singson is determined to build on her earlier season success, which includes a breakthrough playoff victory at Eagle Ridge and a runner-up finish at Forest Hills.

Though defending champion Princess Superal is skipping this week’s P750,000 tournament to undergo shoulder therapy – fresh off a joint third-place finish at the Bangkok Ladies Championship – the field remains deep and competitive.

Singson is bracing for a tough three-day battle against a compact but talent-rich roster that includes Pauline del Rosario, Harmie Constantino, Sarah Ababa, Chihiro Ikeda, Florence Bisera, Tiffany Lee, Kayla Nocum, Martina Miñoza and Pamela Mariano.
