South Cotabato bets shine in JPGT Apo

(UPDATE) RAINIER Tagwalan edged out Adrian Bisera in a close finish in separate flights at the ICTSI Junior PGT Mindanao Series on Tuesday in Davao, bucking a double bogey on No. 8 to card a 76 and wrest a one-stroke lead in the boys' 16-18 category.

Competing at the demanding Apo Golf and Country Club course for the first time at the JPGT, Tagwalan, hailing from South Cotabato, overcame a rough start of three bogeys in the first 11 holes from the back, birdying the par-5 third hole but ending with a wet double bogey on the eighth, concluding his round with two 38s.
