Southwoods sets early pace
CEBU CITY, Philippines — Junjun Plana and Coby Rolida produced sub-par rounds to lift Manila Southwoods to the early lead in the 74th Philippine Airlines Men’s Interclub golf team championships at the Cebu Country Club yesterday.
Plana, the only senior in the youth-laden squad, birdied the ninth, his final hole, to secure 38 points while Rolida also closed with a birdie to turn in 37.
Southwoods drew a pair of 33s from Gabriel Manotoc and Josh Jorge to launch its title-retention bid with 141 points.
“We went into the round with a target of 140 points, so I think we did a good job,” said Southwoods non-playing captain Thirdy Escano.
Eastridge Golf Club gained second place with 127 points behind Alexander Bisera’s 38 points.
Loyd Labrador and Joachim Alonso Yu each carded 30 points while Antonio Asistio chipped in 29.
Host CCC took the third spot with 126, drawing 34 from Eric Deen and a pair of 31s from Mark Dy and Vincent Osmeña. The 30s of either Jon Joseph Alvarez or Kyu Ok On counted.
