Davao City, Philippines — 29 October 2026. Harmie Constantino won the ICTSI Apo Golf Classic at Apo Golf and Country Club, closing the final regular-season leg of the Ladies Philippine Golf Tour (LPGT) with a comeback victory. Two strokes behind at the start of the final day, she posted 69 (three under par) for 213 (−3) across 54 holes. South Korea's Kim Seoyun finished second on 215 (−1). Constantino's two-shot win was her second LPGT title of 2026, following her victory at Caliraya Springs in May.
A comeback rather than a wire-to-wire win
Going into the last round, Kim Seoyun and Chanelle Avaricio were tied at 142 (−2) after 36 holes, while Constantino stood at 144 (even par) following rounds of 70 and 74. An early bogey did not force her into riskier shot selection. Instead, three consecutive birdies beginning on the fifth hole brought her back into contention. She was playing in the penultimate group, so she completed her round before the final pairing and had to await the leaders' finish.
The championship shifted on the inward nine. Kim made three bogeys in her first four holes after the turn, surrendering the advantage. A birdie at the 18th reduced the deficit but left her with a final-round 73 (+1) and 215 overall. Avaricio signed for 76 (+4) and slipped into a three-way tie for third.
Final women's leaderboard
1. Harmie Constantino — 213 (−3), closing 69. 2. Kim Seoyun (South Korea) — 215 (−1), closing 73. T3. Chanelle Avaricio, Yvon Bisera and Princess Superal — 218 (+2) each, with final rounds of 76, 71 and 74 respectively. These are the women's 54-hole results, not scores from the men's tournament that shares the ICTSI Apo name.
The winner collected ₱162,500. Constantino previously won at Caliraya Springs in May, making this her second tournament victory of the 2026 season. Apo concluded the LPGT's regular series, although match-play invitationals are still listed for November in the tour calendar.
Yvon Bisera's separate hole-in-one milestone
Yvon Bisera produced a hole-in-one on the 165-yard, par-three 17th, using a pitching wedge. Tournament organiser Pilipinas Golf Tournaments Inc. awarded her an additional ₱20,000 bonus for the ace. The bonus is separate from the tournament's finishing positions: Bisera shared third place at 218.
What the Davao victory says about the season
Constantino described the strain of a campaign involving almost 20 tournament starts and said patience, rather than a major swing overhaul, shaped her final-round approach. The distinction matters: good course management meant resisting unnecessarily aggressive approaches, not abandoning chances to make birdie. Her final-round 69 turned a two-stroke deficit into a two-stroke victory. Local amateur Johanna Uyking was the leading amateur, finishing tied eighth on 224.
