CABANATUAN CITY, Philippines — Harmie Constantino faced relentless challenges throughout the day but displayed late-round brilliance to secure a 70 and extend her lead to two strokes over promising junior golfer Jiwon Lee after 36 holes of the ICTSI Lakewood Championship in Nueva Ecija on Wednesday.
Three birdies in the last six holes gave Constantino a 36-34 round at the softened Lakewood Golf and Country Club, providing her with crucial breathing room as she prepares for Thursday's final round of the P750,000 championship. She is aiming for a record fourth straight victory on the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour.On the brink of another win with a 136 total and a two-stroke advantage, Constantino remains cautious. 'I have no expectations.
'I hit all the fairways, leaving me with wedge shots to go for the first two long holes ,' said Bisera, who, however, settled for one par at the back, flubbing her chances on Nos. 14 and 18.Focus, however, will be on Lee, who continued to impress beyond her years. After an opening 69 highlighted by two eagles, the back-to-back winner of the first two legs of the Junior PGT crafted another three-under round, securing the role of challenger at 138.
