-
After a tour of five of the most popular golfing destinations around the country, the Samsung Amateur Golf Tour returns to Metro Manila with the rolling Eastridge Golf Club in Binangonan, Rizal set to host the next leg on Thursday and Friday (Dec. 18-19).

Focus of the 36-hole battle is the search for the next grand finals qualifier in the championship division where the two foremost amateur shotmakers of the land at the moment, Jerome Delariarte and Juvic Pagunsan, have already earned their spots.

Jay Bayron and reigning Eastridge club champion Chino Raymundo head the list of those eyeing to join Delariarte and Juvic as well as National pro-am titlist JR Tanpinco in the tournament of champions set in March next year at Mt. Malarayat in Batangas.

The Samsung Tour kicked off at Forest Hills before going on a nationwide trip in venues like the Apo Golf and Country Club in Davao, Pueblo del Oro in Cagayan de Oro, Cebu Country Club, Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club in Bacolod and the Camp John Hay course in Baguio.

The penultimate stop of the Samsung Tour eliminations is co-sponsored by Mario’s Restaurant, Wilson, Gatorade, Tokyo Tokyo, Microtel, Custom Clubmakers, Rogin-E and Dunlop Golf with radio stations Killer-Bee, Citylite 88.3, Wave 89.1, Magic 89.9, 99.5 RT and 103.5 K-Lite as official media partners.

For inquiries on the Samsung Amateur Tour, interested players may call the organizing Professional Sports Management Group, Inc. (PSMG) at tel. nos. 6350010 look for Vangie. Registration is on a first-come-first-served basis.

Aside from the championship class, also to be disputed are the titles in Classes A, B and C in the men’s division and the Classes A and B in the ladies side. Samsung television sets, DVDs and microwave ovens will be awarded to the top three finishers.

Side-by-side with the stroke play competitions is the Samsung Putting Challenge where slots to the grand finals in the men’s, jungolf, ladies and seniors divisions will be disputed.

After this week’s leg, only the Tagaytay Midlands stage will be left to be contested on Jan. 22-23.
