CLARK Freeport Zone: Jhonnel Ababa came out on top of a gut-wrenching battle of wits and nerves that was nothing but seething, fashioning out a five-stroke triumph on a late but decisive three-shot swing on No. 16 that stymied Michael Bibat's stab at ICTSI Mimosa Plus Championship glory here on Friday.

But it was more of Ababa's day-long brilliance that set him apart from the rest and netted him a second championship at the close of the 10-leg Philippine Golf Tour season as he reset the course mark with an unblemished eight-under 64 for a whopping 22-under 266 total over four rounds of intense duel of shotmaking, iron play and putting at Acacia course.
