Philippines Contingents Performance
Up until Round 11, WIM Janelle Mae Frayna was leading the girls’ race. Unfortunately, she lost her Rounds 11 and 12 games, and drew the last round. In the final tally, she finished 5th only.
Except for Mendoza, everyone actually finished higher than their actual seeds at the start of the tournament.
