CYNA Rodriguez hopes to close out the ICTSI Ladies Philippine Golf Tour season the way she opened it—in big fashion—as she guns for a fifth victory in the ICTSI Sherwood Ladies Championship which reels off Nov. 25 at Sherwood Hills Golf Club in Trece Martires, Cavite.
Rodriguez beat Jayvie Agojo by five in the kickoff leg of this year’s ICTSI LPGT at Orchard and went on to win three straight—in runaway fashions —at John Hay, Mt. Malarayat and Eagle Ridge.
But Thailand’s Amolkan Phalajivin foiled her bid for a fourth straight at Splendido then Dottie Ardina, on a break from her Symetra Tour campaign in the US, returned to dominate the penultimate leg of the eight-stage circuit sponsored by International Container Terminal Services, Inc. at Valley.
But with Ardina and Mia Piccio, who placed second at Valley, now back in the US, Rodriguez looms as the top favorite, along with Phalijvin and Riviera leg winner Jayvie Agojo and title-huntry Chihiro Ikeda in the season-ending tournament which offers a record LPGT purse of P750,000.
Rodriguez is also out to atone for her dismal showing at Valley where she hobbled to place joint sixth with amateur Sofia Chabon of Team ICTSI, her worst finish in a dominant campaign in the circuit organized by Pilipinas Golf Tournaments, Inc. and backed by backed by Nike, Pacsports, Custom Clubmakers and Sharp.
