CEBU, Philippines – Manila Southwoods Masters pulled the rug from under hot favorite Cebu Country Club team A to bag its fourth straight overall crown in the 9th Philippine Airlines Ladies Interclub at the Alta Vista Golf and Country Club in Pardo, Cebu City Saturday.

Manila Southwoods Masters fired a total of 561 points on rounds of 274 and 287 points to escape by the skin of their teeth.

Cebu Country Club-A finished with 560 points on rounds of 281 and 279 to take second place while taking third is Del Monte Golf Club of Bukidnon with 498 points (249-249).

Host Alta Vista tried to do a final push on the second and final round, but fell short and finished fourth in the premiere Championship division with 487 points (228-259).

Sofia Angela Legaspi led the final day surge of Manila Southwoods Masters with 52 points and got ample support from Maria Annika Cedo and Maria Sofia Chabon with 51 points apiece.

Lora Roberto fired 46 points, skipper Beachie Abiera had 44 and last to count was Christine Valdehueza with 43.  The last member of the team was Marie Claire Ong with 41.

The tournament format allows a team to field a maximum of eight players with only the six best scores to count.  The Molave Points System was used.

Cebu Country Club-A, which had a seven-point lead after the first round, failed to maintain its form.  Junia Gabasa, Lois Kaye ‘LK’ Go and Crystal Faith Superal each turned in 50 points and also counting for the team total were Mary Kim Hong 47, Stephanie Olea 46, and Jyra Mae Wong 36 for a second day output of 279 points.

Hannah Jayne Wong carded 35 points and skipper Catrina Martinez had 24.

Del Monte, playing with only the bare minimum of six players on the final day, had Rainstar Roque leading the pack with 49 points.  The other players were Pamela Mariano (48), Martina Miñoza (42), Rhea Langgamin (41), Starlyn Roque (35) and Annika Mendoza (34).

Missing a podium finish, tournament debutante Alta Vista was led by Ericka Lim on the final round with two-under-par 56 points.  Lim, 17, is the back-to-back ladies cub champion.

Also counting for the team total on the second day were Choi Yi Hwa 47, Mikylah Marie Crystal 46, Gabrielle Marie Crystal 44, 11-year-old Weifang Gao 35, and skipper Marina Kaufmann 31.  The other members of the team were Sol Pasion and Annika Yeo.  — PR from www.fullpointcebu.com (FREEMAN)
