Superal hopes to dominate at PH Ladies Golf tourney

MANILA: Filipina golf sensation Princess Superal is hopeful of bringing laurels to the country and successfully end Thailand’s victory run at the Philippine Ladies Open Golf Championship when it is held January 20-22 at the Midlands of the Tagaytay Highlands Golf and Country Club course, media reports said.

Superal, the former US Girls’ Open champion, will head to the 54-hole championship in top form, having racked up five victories, including the Hong Kong Ladies Amateur Open last week where she turned what was expected to be a tight finish into a runaway triumph with an impressive closing six-under 66 and won by four of local ace Mimi Ho, Cebu Daily News reported.

With her The Country Club teammates, Superal plunges into serious training this as she plans to toughen up for the event, hoping to familiarize herself with the up-and-down Midlands layout, which is expected to challenge the field’s mental toughness with its windy condition.

Superal struggled to finish seventh in last year’s staging of the event at Wack Wack but has won four tournaments to end her 2015 campaign, including two in Malaysia and one each in Singapore and Jakarta, the news report said.
