At third spot is the tandem of Alfredo Tan (39) and his brother-in-law Junnie Cimafranca (39) with 80 points.
Four teams made 79 points apiece and these are the duos of Carl Almario (41) and Fernando Mondares (38); Jufil Sato (42) and Hubert Calan (37); Alex Garcia (40) and Michael Mendoza (39); and Hansel Ong (40) and Elpedio Ong (39).
Eduardo Manzano (38) and Vic Ramos (40) are a point further back with 78 points while Ed Alegrado (32) and Clifford Celdran (45) made 77 points.
Participants will be classified further under three divisions based on the average handicaps of the team members.
A total of 200 teams are seeing action in the tournament, which is the maximum that organizers would accept.
The awards ceremony will be held tomorrow evening at the AVGCC ballroom.
