Ira Alido and Keanu Jahns, two of the Philippine Golf Tour’s emerging stars, aim high in The Country Club Invitational, motivated by Koreans Micah Shin and Kim Joo Hyung’s escape acts in the last two editions of the circuit’s highlight event at the TCC course in Laguna.

The P5-million event reels off Wednesday with a select cast made up of the Top 30 players in last year’s PGT Order of Merit ranking all geared up for four days of battle, including Alido and Jahns, both due for a big finish following impressive campaigns last year.

Alido has posted a number of Top 5 finishes to end up at No. 6 in the OOM derby while Jahns also had a couple of runner-up finishes, including here where he lost by one to Kim, who humbled the country’s top players to become the young winner of the Philippine’s richest championship outside of the Philippine Open at 17.http://tempo.com.ph/feed/
