After a decade on Japan Tour, Juvic Pagunsan finally grabs his V1 and the ticket to The Open

"Finally, after 10 years", was the first words out of his mouth, after successfully achieving his first victory on Japan Tour. He managed to keep his 3-stroke lead until the end and accomplished his win.

This victory was very unique as Juvic decided to carry the bag on his shoulders and to make it light as possible took out several iron and played only with 11 clubs.

As for some of the shots which he needed the clubs he left out, he used his technics to cover it marvelously. Controlled his shots low and high, punched or half swing it to deliver the variation of perfect shots.

Now, he has received a ticket to The Open, which he has been away for 8 years.

Runner-up, Ryutaro Nagano also received the ticket to The Open, and this will be his first challenge on the Major tournaments.
