ILOILO , Philippines — Rupert Zaragosa moved on the cusp of a breakthrough pro crown after posting a new course-record seven-under 63 in the penultimate round of the ICTSI Iloilo Golf Challenge presented by MORE Power here yesterday.
Zaragosa shook off a couple of frontside putting woes with a blistering backside, leaving behind a stunned field with a whopping eight-stroke lead.
Second-running and recent The Country Club Invitational winner Guido Van der Valk had hinted at the improbability of overhauling such a huge deficit in the last 18 holes of the P2.25 million championship at the Iloilo Golf and Country Club.
