Aguilera and Kalinga scored 78 Molave points at the Nick Faldo course then returned the next day to amass 73 at the Greg Norman layout for a 151 aggregate that proved too hot to handle for the big field in the tourney which had Nissan Commonwealth, Globe Platinum and CIGI Insurance as the major backers.
They finished 11 points ahead of the next best team in the final standings.
George Samonte and Florante Astilla tallied 71-69-140 on the way to clinching the Division II plum. Felix Cortez-Gary Sales captured Division I while Peter Tan and Jesus Romero won Division II.
Petron and Samsung were the Invitational’s other major backers. W.G. Construction, G. Shop, SLGC, Alsons Insurance, Mizuno, Microtel, Mandarin Oriental, Golf Library, PacSports, Nestle, Coppertone, CAR Travel, Prime Deli-Monterey, RB Michael Press and Gerry’s Buko served as hole sponsors.
Although nobody won the Nissan X-Trail staked as a hole-in-one prize in both courses for two days, Constantino Navarro’s ticket was picked for the same car worth more than a million pesos as the grand raffle prize.
The overall champions and the division winners received signature golf bags and trophies.
Cortez-Sales posted a 132 built around a 76 at the Faldo course to beat Fernando Pizarro-Efren Cruz by one with Antonio Jesus and Antonio Abad coming in third place at 128.
Tan-Romero banked on a big 58-point effort at the Norman course to finish with 102 and finish four ahead of Ruperto Pangilinan and Wilbert Uy. John Ong-Rafael Macalagim wound up third with their 97.
Next at Eagle is the seniors monthly Oct. 9 and the monthly members medal Oct. 16.
