It has been a tough couple of years for the Philippines' youngest Epson Tour player Pauline del Rosario.


She's not complaining, though.
At the age when most women are trying to adjust to "adulting," the 24-year-old is trying to do that and run a professional golf career as well.
Right there with the best in the sport.
"It's a competitive tour, everyone can shoot low scores and I think it's a good place to train for the LPGA, which is the goal," Del Rosario told Tribune Golf Plus.
Only on her sophomore year in Epson Tour — LPGA's farm league — Del Rosario is hoping to one day score a card to the big league.
A normal tournament week would find Del Rosario traveling on Mondays and spending the next few days practicing on the venues.
Fridays to Sundays, tournament days, she buckles down to actual work, trying to catch a break and snare a first-ever tour title.
She went closer to her dreams last weekend when she finished tied for 18th at Circling Raven Championship in Worley, Idaho.
That was her best so far in the Tour since a T12 finish last year in the Four Winds Invitational.
