Mito Pereira’s stay in Japan ended on Sunday. The Chilean came back to climb positions and finished the tournament in 45th position with a two-under par aggregate and the feeling that Friday’s bad game was nothing more than a slip-up in a more than positive week.

As for the Pirque native’s final round, he started on the 10th hole with back-to-back birdies immediately. A great moment that was only cut short by a bogey at flag 14 after being unable to overcome a par five.
Then there would be reductions on 15 and 1, showing that the intention was to reduce hits in any way. With a risky and precise game, the Chilean nailed again consecutive birdies at seven and eight provoking the madness of the Japanese public, one of the most passionate in the world.

It will now have to be seen if the National Olympian heads straight to South Carolina to compete in the CJ Cup or if he takes a break to compete again in the Butterfield Bermuda Championship on the Atlantic island. Of course, in one of these two tournaments, Mito’s name will be among the protagonists. In this start, he showed that his golf is to fight every week.
