Former amateur hotshot Pauline del Rosario finally nailed a win on her fourth try in the pros, bucking an early scare from Thai Nemittra Juntanaket then coasting to a trouble-free five-stroke romp over amateur Eagle Ace Superal in the ICTSI Orchard Ladies Invitational at Orchard’s Player course in Dasmariñas, Cavite yesterday.

Del Rosario hit two birdies against a bogey to close out with a 71 for a 218 as the 18-year-old shotmaker banked her biggest earning in a young pro career – P250,000 – after a couple of runner-up finishes on late meltdowns, including a playoff setback to Korean Euna Koh at Luisita last April.
