PGT kickoff leg at LakewoodThe 7,049-yard layout made its Tour hosting debut in 2024 as the sixth leg of the circuit, producing a breakthrough moment for Sean Ramos, who fired an 18-under 270 to edge Reymon Jaraula by two and finish three strokes clear of multi-titled Tony Lascuña. MANILA, Philippines — After a successful debut last year, Lakewood Golf and Country Club takes on a bigger spotlight in 2026 by hosting the kickoff stage of the new season of the Philippine Golf Tour and the Ladies PGT. The 7,049-yard layout made its Tour hosting debut in 2024 as the sixth leg of the circuit, producing a breakthrough moment for Sean Ramos, who fired an 18-under 270 to edge Reymon Jaraula by two and finish three strokes clear of multi-titled Tony Lascuña. Persistent rains softened the course, limited roll, and forced players to attack a layout that played longer and more demanding than its card suggested. Set for March 24-27, Lakewood is expected to present a firmer, faster and potentially fiercer test over 72 grueling holes.
