Pronove, Reyes best in Malcolm Centennial golf

MANILA, Philippines - Gao Pronove played well despite the wet West course as he fired 72 Stableford points while Les Reyes shot the best gross score 69 en route to emphatic victories in the successful Malcolm Cup-Centennial Edition held at the Wack Wack Golf and Country Club recently.

Pronove’s output, along with Alex Cruz’s 66, Romeo Candazo’s 63 and Nonoy Juarez’s 62, propelled Batch 86 to the team win with 263 points for the coveted perpetual Malcolm Cup trophy in the event co-presented by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation.

Louie Papa (Class A), Alex Cruz (Class B). Resty Cabrera (Class C) and Flore Bouzanne (Ladies) were the other winners in the event supported by Petron, Roxas group of Cos., the Platon, Martinez, Flores, San Pedro, and Leano and the Siguion Reyna, Montecillo and Ongsiako law offices.

Telecom Concepts, UP College of Law Dean Danilo Concepcion, Atty Alex Gaticales, Wilcon Builders, CATS Motors, Copylandia, Portia Sorority, Sigma Rho Fraternity, Renato Villaseñor, Energy Devt. Corp., UP Vanguard and UPSILON Fraternity-members of Class ‘86 were hole sponsors.

An Altis, courtesy of Toyota Abad-Santos, was the hole-in-one prize. Sadly, no one shot an ace among the 100 players who came to play in the Malcolm Cup, organized by the Silver Jubilarian Class of 1986, a fund-raising project which is part of the UP College of Law’s 100th year celebration.

Proceeds will partly go to the Class of 1986’s scholarship and financial assistance fund for deserving law students and the Grand Alumni Homecoming on Nov. 11 at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), which the Class ‘86 is hosting this year.

Among the other projects of Class ‘86, headed by president Grace Quevedo-Panagsagan, are the Malcolm Centennial Walk, to upgrade the landscape of the college and to serve as a commemorative project, and the Search for the Malcolm 100 outstanding alumni who best exemplify the values of honor, excellence, leadership and service to others.
