LPGT puts up own ‘Duel’ series

Inspired by the success of the men’s The Duel—North vs South series, the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour (LPGT) stages its own Ryder Cup-style showdown next week when 16 pros slug it out for the inaugural crown at the South Course of the Canlubang Golf and Country Club in Laguna.

“This is in response to the lady pros’ clamor to hold their own version of the Duel side by side with the men’s,” said Colo Ventosa, general manager of the organizing Pilipinas Golf Tournaments, Inc. “This is going to be fun and at the same we expect a highly competitive duel.”
