Tight finish at Splendido

LAUREL, Batangas, Philippines — Bobe Salahog survived a nerve-wracking, wind-lashed finish to snatch low medal honors in the Philippine Golf Tour Qualifying School at Splendido Taal Golf Club here Friday.

Salahog held firm with clutch pars coming home then watched rival Lee Song fold under pressure, including a costly bogey on the 16th and a double bogey on the last.

Salahog fired a second straight 70 and finished at three-under 285. Song fought back hard but slipped to a 74 for fourth at 287.

Ryoto Furuya ended tied for second with Charles Lee at 286 after identical 70s. Enrico Gallardo finished with a 76 for fifth at 291.
