Contrasting triumphs for Casuga, Sarines

MANILA, Philippines — Jacob Casuga staged a shocking frontside comeback, erasing a two-shot deficit over the ultimate two holes to grab a dramatic one-stroke victory within the boys’ 11-14 division of the ICTSI Caliraya Springs Junior PGT Championship yesterday.

A clutch birdie-bogey swing on No. 8 put him in hanging distance, and he sealed the win on a closing 75 as Vito Sarines stumbled down the stretch, holing out with a bogey for a 76 on the difficult Caliraya Springs Golf Membership right here.

If Vito’s heartbreak stung, sister Mona greater than compensated, with a two-under 70 to dominate the ladies’ 11-14 division. Her seven-birdie, six-bogey combination of 143 left Kendra Garingalao (78-74-152) and twin sister Lisa Sarines (77-79-156) at second and third locations, respectively.
