Mendoza, Ateneo rule IIT Eastridge

Monique Mendoza dished out a performance that defied both the elements and a compact, competitive field, carding an 11-over 83 to rule the weather-disrupted Round 4 of the ICTSI Eastridge Intercollegiate Tournament at the Eastridge Golf Club here Sunday, Aug. 24.

Navigating the par-72 mountaintop layout under unpredictable and testing conditions — alternating between searing sunshine and sudden downpours — Mendoza kept her composure through a virtual survival test. Play was suspended for nearly two hours due to a lightning threat, halting momentum and demanding both mental and physical re-calibration from the field.
