Constantin­o tackles strong field in Luisita Int'l

-

Harmie Constantin­o is bracing for a formidable challenge as she aims for her third consecutiv­e victory in the ICTSI Luisita Ladies Internatio­nal 2024 set to unfold from April 23-25 at the Luisita Golf and Country Club in Tarlac.

The $100,000 championsh­ip features a strong internatio­nal roster, including top talents from the LPGA of Taiwan (TLPGA) and top competitor­s from Thailand, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Hong Kong.

Fresh off her triumph in the ICTSI Caliraya Springs Championsh­ip last week, Constantin­o, renowned for her strategic play and resilience, is prepared to take on both the challengin­g course and a diverse field of competitor­s.

Her recent performanc­es, marked by dramatic come-frombehind victories, underscore her capability to compete at high levels. She overturned a five-stroke deficit to claim victory at Rancho Palos Verdes in Davao, followed by a remarkable comeback from three shots down to defeat two of the best players on the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour – Pauline del Rosario and

Princess Superal in Cavinti, Laguna.

Reflecting on her ascent in the competitiv­e golf scene. Constantin­o said: “Honestly, I’m just happy to be in contention because it shows that my game is keeping pace with strong competitor­s. It’s a testament that my hard work is paying off.”

As she sets her sights on a third straight win – and ninth overall – Constantin­o faces a steep path lined with elite adversarie­s. The field at Luisita is studded with top players from the current TLPGA rankings, and a host of talented players from Thailand and elsewhere.
