This
annual charity event for the benefit of The
Junior Golfers League (TJGL) is presented by Oakley to encourage a
thriving competitive golf future for the country by developing the potential
of young, talented golfers such as the TJGL, the grassroots development
league of the Junior Golf Foundation of the Philippines.
Despite
the tough competition, the players enjoyed the 18-hole system 36 game. Skills,
patience and their heart for golf were tested, as playing golf is not a walk in
the park, but Oakley’s Prizm Lens Technology has brought to the game to a whole
new level of clarity.
