One month after scoring a breakthrough via team championship, Jobim Carlos turned in a kind of finish that wins big-time individual championships, closing out with a four-under 67 and beating multi-titled Tony Lascuña by two for the Philippine Golf Tour Asia’s ICTSI Riviera Classic crown in Silang, Cavite on Saturday. The former amateur hotshot then toiled in a winless second year campaign before teaming up with DJ Padilla to nail the Delimondo Pro-am championship at Splendido last month. “But now I set my mind to score on every hole and got the job done.”The delay likewise worked to his advantage. Lascuña, who tied Bibat for the lead twice midway through the final round, failed to matched Carlos’ scorching windup, bogeying two of the last seven and ended up second at 281 after a 70. Bibat, who moved nine holes away from scoring a follow-up to his maiden win at Palos Verdes in 2013, succumbed to pressure and bogeyed four of the last seven for a 73.
