Korean amateur Hwang Min-jeong sizzled at the back and shot a four-under 68 then pounced on Chihiro Ikeda and Princess Superal’s last-hole bogeys to wrest a one-stroke lead at the start of the ICTSI Eagle Ridge Ladies Invitational here in Gen. Trias, Cavite on Wednesday.

Hwang, coming off a runaway victory in the Philippine Amateur Championship at Riviera last month, broke a two-birdie, two-bogey stint at the front with a pair of back-to-back birdies (10-11 and 15-16) at Aoki’s backnine to jump from the middle of the pack to the top of the heap in the third leg of this year’s Ladies Philippine Golf Tour put up by ICTSI.
