Camp John Hay’s two teams shared equal billing, with Luisita Golf and Country Club and Manila Southwoods at the top podium. John Marasigan had top honors in individual play in the first week of the 74th Januarius Fil-Am Invitational Golf Tournament at the Camp John Hay and Baguio Country Club golf courses.

 

When Abe Rosal carded 34 points a two-over, Benjie Sumulong shared a 30, Damasus Wong and Ferdie Barbosa had 29 and 28 points, respectively, as Luisita tallied its second straight 121 and outscored the tournament’s most successful team for the Fil Championship title.

Veteran Junjun Plana led Southwoods with 31, Raul Minoza and Judd Roy III had similar 28 and Manfred Guanko chipped in 27 for the teams 114 and 443 total.

 

It was a head on from day one for the top 2 squads, with Riviera Golf settling for third after 111 and 431 points.

 

Southwoods marched to the Am Championship after closing out with 85 points and 412 total, nine off, or a two-point improvement on its third day, on Srixon SRI, while Greenwater Seniors improved to 395 after an 88 to take the last podium.

 

On a rainy Wednesday morning that delayed games and even cancelled some flights, Joseph Tambunting scored 23, while Thirdy Escano and Monet Garcia churned in a pair of 21 and Ryan Abdon chipped in a 20 to count for the team that won another title in an already stacked up trophy room of the Carmona, Cavite squad.

 

Francis Telan top scored for Srixon with 26, Steve McDonald forged a 21, while Demetrio Saclut and August Cruz added a pair of 18.

 

Greenwater Seniors had the flight best score with 88 on the 25 of Ernesto Lim, the 23 and 22 of Douglas Puckett and Roland Punzalan, respectively, and the 18 of Sunny Fontilea.

   

Camp John Hay I carded a closing round of 117 for a four day total of 409 and a 12 point win over two day leader Mamala Bay which closed with a 110 and 397. Moto finished third with 369 after scoring 101 Wednesday.

 

CJH 2 officially walks home with the title in Seniors Am A with a closing round of 86 and 393 points, 37 off The Young Ones and another 16 on BIBAK NY/NJ Igolfers USA.

 

CJH 2’s top man John Marasigan completed a romp for the individual title in Group 2 with 63 points on his flight best 36 at CJH and 27 at the BCC, topping Moto man Eulalio Austin who finished with 56 (25-31).

 

Meanwhile, games in Fil B and C were cancelled Wednesday due to strong rains, even as the earlier flights continued despite being interrupted.

 

In a post, the Fil-Am golf committee announced:  “Due to the imminent threat of darkness caused by the rain delays, we regret to inform you that the 4th round for the following divisions is canceled: Seniors Flight B and Seniors Flight C.”

 

It added: “These divisions will therefore be reduced to a 54-hole competition.”

 

It further said: “Upon resumption, players will be allowed to lift, clean, and place their balls throughout the General Area, within 1 scorecard length and no nearer to the hole.”

 

Thus, Bughaw Group clinched the title with 280 after rounds of 81, 98 and 101. A1/MGC placed second with 262 and just three points down were BCC1 with 259.

 

Games in Am B and C, however, were completed in the Baguio Country Club with MCG Mimosa taking the Am B crown by 18 points.

 

It shot a closing round 71 for 344, followed by Waterlympics Pampanga, which closed out with 67 for 326 and Forest Hills Palmer with 314 after a 66. 

 

In Fil C, Silicon Valley Golfers Link 1 took top podium after a three-round total of 227, two shots off Team City of Vallejo I and another two on Pinewoods Kumpadres.

 

In Am C, Project Lazarus held off co-host BCC 2 287-286 after closing out with 63 against the 64 of the latter. Team Na Koa landed third with 272 after a 54.

 

In Fil D, Kalabaw Megafiber had a closing round 81 for a 286 and edge overnight leader Fil-Am Oahu 1 by a single mark. The Hawaiians had a four round 284, just one off Mountaineers which had a similar 78 and 283.

 

Davao Eagle Masters 2 stayed a hot late charge of Melbourne – Australia but won by four. Davao closed out with 62 and 259, while the Aussies finished with a 70 less the two point penalty for 254 and four shots off another Aussie team, Macquarie Links Sydney 2 which closed with a 64 and 250.

 

Macquarie Links was actually tied with Sandigan 82 2 but the former had a fifth man who scored seven while the latter had a four man team in the last round.

 

CaliPhil Hawaii closed out with a 73 and a 236 for an eight point victory in Seniors Fil E. The team started just a point off but outscored the latter 73-66 in the last round. Korea Morning Calm settled for third after scoring 64 and 226.

 

Sandigan Golfers 2 won Am E by 10 points over Fil-Am Oahu Golf 2. Sandigan had a last round 52 and 210, while Sandigan made 55 for 200. Green Canyon fell to third place after a 44 and 196 total.
