Taal Junior PGT Championship starts Monday
The ICTSI Splendido Taal Junior PGT Championship kicks off on Monday, April 28, in Laurel, Batangas, with multiple storylines adding intrigue to the third leg of the seven-stage Luzon series.
Lisa Sarines and Mavis Espedido aim to extend their winning streaks in the girls' 11-14 and 7-10 divisions respectively but will face stiffer competition from rivals like Alexie Gabi, Eliana Dumalaog, Althea Bañez, Avery Sytengco, Casedy Cuenca, Mona Cuenca, Winter Serapio, Emerie Tablac, Penelope Sy, and others.
Zach Guico and Zoji Edoc are set for a rematch in the premier boys' division alongside other top contenders such as Halo Pangilinan, Michael Ray Hortel II, Blake Sy, Kenzo Tan, Asher Abad, Ryuji Suzuki, Vito Sarines, Sebastian Ledesma, Cade Santos, Matthias Espina, Jacob Casuga, Ryuichi Tao, Miguel Dillera, Victor Pangilinan, Peyton Coyiuto, and Lorenzo Juane.
In the 15-18 divisions, Rafa Anciano and Shinichi Suzuki lead the charge with Tristan Padilla making his debut after winning the Junior World Qualifier at The Country Club.
Players compete for valuable ranking points to advance to the North vs South Duel national finals in September, with only the top four from each division qualifying after participating in at least three legs of the series.
