CLARK FREEPORT ZONE – Daniella Uy dusted herself off a previous setback that ruined a three-straight title drive and went right back at it, shooting a stunning eight-under 64 Thursday to secure the ICTSI Mimosa Plus Championship and emerge the winningest player on this year’s Ladies Philippine Golf Tour.
“My 2 eagles did help me win this one,” said Uy, who drained a seven-foot putt off a wedge second shot from 126 yards on the par-5 No. 5 then set up a three-footer for another eagle on the next long hole on No. 9 off a 7-iron shot from 156 yards. Fortuna, whose solid opening round 65 sparked hopes of a breakthrough stint for the Oklahoma U product, rebounded from a bogey on No. 7 with two straight birdies from the next and stayed within three shots off Uy with a birdie on the 11th.
Uy’s margin of victory thus surpassed amateur Rianne Malixi’s previous season’s biggest four-shot romp over Chihiro Ikeda in Iloilo last March and it augured well for Uy’s upcoming campaign in the second stage of the Japan Qualifying School next month.
