South Korean conquers Tour of Luzon

South Korean Joo Dae Yeong of Gapyeong Cycling Team completes his Tour of Luzon individual general classification conquest on May 1, 2025 at the Camp John Hay in Baguio here. Joo finished 22nd in the eighth and final stage of the race -- the Lingayen to Baguio route -- but his lap time of 4:21:31 in the extremely-challenging uphill climb proved to be enough to keep the yellow jersey he claimed after topping the opening stage -- the Paoay to Paoay route. Overall, Joo logged 22 hours, 21 minutes and eight seconds, a slim six ticks ahead of runner-up Jan Paul Morales of the Standard Insurance Philippines (22:21:14) and 52 seconds faster than third placer Jonel Carcueva of MPT Drivehub (22:22:00). The 28-year-old Joo won the P1 million prize of the 1,074.90-kilometer race which carried 'The Great Revival' theme, being the first to be held since 2002.
