ICTSI Tour’s Q-School gets going

SIXTY-THREE pros set out for a four-day battle as they vie for 40 slots staked for next year’s ICTSI Philippine Golf Tour in the PGT Q-School beginning today at Eagle Ridge’s Norman course in Gen. Trias, Cavite.

Former world junior champions Ramon Brobio and Carito Villaroman have joined the long list of players seeking to regain their cards in the rich local tour being lined up next year.

Twelve amateurs are also hoping to make it to the big league next year with Andres Saldaña, Noel Langgamin, Magno Arancon, Keanu Jahns and Francis Morilla joining the hunt in the 72-hole tournament organized by Pilipinas Golf Tournaments, Inc.

Artemio Murakami, a former leg winner, headlines the field, which also includes those who failed to make it to the top 40 in this year’s ICTSI PGT Order of Merit ranking topped for the second straight year by Tony Lascuña.
