Heidi Ilustre and Diane Pascua, the gorgeous Fil-American pair hoping to bring honor to the country in the world of beach volley, will soon launch their bid for a slot in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.


Where to get the money to spend for their campaign, however, is the big question.

"We just don’t know where to get the money," said Filipino banker Tonyboy Liao, who’s quietly assuming the financier’s role for the two head-turners who won the bronze medal in the 2005 Manila SEA Games.

Ramirez yesterday said after consulting with the heads of the 14 chosen sports with medal chances in Beijing, he already has in his hands the names of the 40 athletes.

He clarified, however, that not all these athletes will make it to Beijing since some of them may not get past their respective qualifying tournaments.

The Pascua-Ilustre tandem, which caught the fancy of the crowd at the Sport City with its charm and talent, blamed the loss to erratic offense and poor defense and said the windy condition somehow stymied their bid.
