Title Kim Seizes Lead as Del Rosario Stumbles at Finish

The ICTSI Worldwide Link Philippine Ladies Masters 2025 got underway in thrilling fashion on Thursday, with Pauline del Rosario's courageous play giving way to a late stumble that saw her slide to a share of sixth place. Kim Ahyeon seized the opportunity, surging ahead with a blistering front-nine 31 to take the lead at seven-under overall (137) after 36 holes.

Del Rosario, thrust into the solo spotlight, showed steely resolve in embracing the challenge and proved her mettle in a field teeming with international talent. Her aggressive play, particularly in the first 12 holes, which she played in three-under, demonstrated the tenacity and experience that could propel her to a breakthrough win in this $200,000 event.

However, TCC's notoriously demanding closing stretch proved unforgiving. A wayward drive on the par-4 16th resulted in a bogey, and a costly three-putt on the final hole further dampened her charge. Despite the late stumble, del Rosario remains a strong contender at 140.

While del Rosario briefly threatened for a share of the lead, Kim Ahyeon capitalized on her hot start, firing birdies on Nos. 1, 2, 4, 8, and 9 to finish at seven-under overall (137). Thai Parinda Phokan birdied the par-4 17th to cap a 70, securing solo second at 138.

Kim Yeosoon (68), Wang Li-Ning (69), and Han Nakyoung (70) all posted matching 139s, setting the stage for an intense and unpredictable battle in the $200,000 tournament, co-sanctioned by the Korean LPGA, the LPGA of Taiwan, and the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour.

For del Rosario, the stakes couldn't be higher. As the last Filipina standing in realistic contention, she carries the hopes of the home crowd. A victory here would solidify her status as a rising force in the international scene. Having already demonstrated her ability to rise to the occasion before her late meltdown, she will need an even gallant performance to reclaim the top spot.

The rest of the PH contingent fell by the wayside, missing the cut set at 149. Mikha Fortuna briefly ignited hopes of a comeback with back-to-back birdies on No. 2 but struggled to maintain momentum, finishing with a 78 for a total of 150 – just one stroke shy of making the final 18 holes. Daniella Uy posted the same score, also after a 78.

Chanelle Avaricio battled through a 77 for a 152, while Gretchen Villacencio carded a 73 for a 153, and Princess Superal and Kayla Nocum posted identical 154s after 73 and 80, respectively.
