ICTSI’s Ronnel Javier, Adrian Bisera, Aldrien Gialon, Rainier Tagwalan and Apo Golf Club Administrator Maricel Lisbo.Davao—Aldrien Gialon overcame a disastrous quadruple bogey on the par-5 No. 3 with a determined series of pars and birdies, securing a commanding lead and ultimately clinching the boys’ 16-18 category title by 10 with a 76 in the ICTSI JPGT Mindanao Series I at Apo Golf and Country Club yesterday .
Gialon closed with 40-36, following three rounds of 78, to assemble a 72-hole total of 310, earning a remarkable 10-stroke victory over his cousin, Bisera. The 18-year-old Gialon’s performance, marked by resilience and skill, secured him a well-deserved victory in the challenging conditions of the 72-hole tournament sponsored by ICTSI.
He bounced back from that misstep and a bogey on No. 4 by birdieing the fifth hole and then stringing together four pars, finishing the front nine with a 40. The back nine became a test of iron play and nerves, with Gialon holding off Bisera’s threats by birdieing Nos. 13 and 15, maintaining firm control until the final hole. Aside from the medal, he secured 15 valuable points in the race for the top two spots in the four-leg Mindanao Series, leading to the Match Play Championship at The Country Club in Laguna in October.
