Mondilla wins ICTSI South Pacific Classic after late birdies
Sean Ramos finished two shots behind as Mondilla ended a two-year wait for another Philippine Golf Tour title.
Clyde Mondilla secured the ICTSI South Pacific Classic title in Davao City on October 23, recovering from a back-nine deficit to finish two strokes clear. His closing two-under 70 at South Pacific Golf Club brought his tournament score to 18-under 270.
Sean Ramos took second place with a 272 total following a final-round 69. He had moved a stroke ahead at the 10th, where his birdie coincided with a bogey for Mondilla, but a dropped shot at the 13th put the pair level again.
Mondilla went back in front with a birdie at the par-three 15th, nearly holing his tee shot. Another birdie, from a long putt at the 17th, doubled his advantage. A missed four-foot birdie attempt on the final green did not affect the outcome.
Keanu Jahns climbed into a share of third with a nine-under 63, reaching 273 alongside Lee Song, who shot 72. Angelo Que finished fifth on 274 after a round of 67 that ended with a three-putt bogey.
Mondilla said he regained his composure after the 10th and began holing putts. He also said the victory restored his confidence in managing pressure.
The result was his first Philippine Golf Tour win since beating Que at Caliraya Springs in 2024. Mondilla will next compete in the ICTSI Apo Golf Classic at Apo Golf and Country Club.
