Cyna Rodriguez sets out as the heavy favorite in the P500,000
ICTSI Eagle Ridge Ladies Invitational starting today at Eagle Ridge’s Aoki course in Gen. Trias, Cavite, looking for her third straight title in this year’s ICTSI Ladies Philippine Golf Tour.
But the former Philippine Ladies Open champion has opted to downplay her chances despite a pair of lopsided victories in the last two legs of the circuit organized by Pilipinas Golf Tournaments Inc. at ICTSI John Hay and ICTSI Mt. Malarayat.
“I don’t consider myself as the heavy favorite,” said Rodriguez. “Anybody can win here. Like them, I practice hard to get to victory. Each event is a real test.”
Rodriguez has raised the level of play in the circuit sponsored by International Container Terminal Services Inc., beating Thai Amolkan Phalijivin twice—by 11 strokes in Baguio and by 10 at Malarayat.
That makes her the player to beat again in the 54-hole championship backed by Nike, Pacsports, Custom Clubmakers and Sharp.
Jayvie Agojo won the second leg at Riviera which Rodriguez skipped to compete abroad.
