TARLAC—Reigning Asian Games gold medalist PK Kongkraphan delivered a stellar performance under sweltering conditions, carding an impressive six-under 66 to wrest control from Hsuan Chen after 36 holes of the $100,000 ICTSI Luisita Ladies International 2024 here Wednesday.
With a bogey-free 71 in the previous round, Kongkraphan, 32, asserted her dominance with a seven-under 137 aggregate, snaring a one-stroke lead over Chen at the Luisita Golf and Country Club course. Punpaka Phuntumabamrung briefly positioned herself to challenge for the top with a four-under card with four holes remaining at the front. But a stroke of misfortune on the par-3 No. 6 dashed her hopes, resulting in a triple bogey and a 70 and keeping her in third place at 140, three strokes behind Kongkraphan.Describing her stellar play, Kongkraphan attributed her success to her aggressive mindset, saying: “I challenged myself and played very aggressively.
Looking ahead to the final round, Kongkraphan expressed her commitment to remaining on the attack mode and focusing on executing her game plan, noting: “I guess a 10-under total would win. But it will boil down to putting, so I have to stay in the fairways and make the putts.”
