Cebuano Go to see action in Philex Regional c’ships

Cebuano ace golfer Lloyd Jefferson Go will be joining his mates on the national team, namely JR Gonzales, Justin Quiban, LJ Go and Andres Saldaña, as they take on top jungolfers JP de Claro, Gabriel Manotoc and Lanz Uy in the Philex Northern Luzon Regional Championships today at the Baguio Golf and Country Club (BCC) in Baguio City.

Chester Calputora leads the local bets from Baguio along with the top caddies and children of BCC workers as well as members of the jungolf chapter of the host club, guaranteeing a wide open battle for top honors in the 54-hole tournament spread over two days.

With the par-61 layout in championship condition following the Fil-Am Invitational, the chase for top honors is indeed expected to be fierce among the crack field in this prestigious tournament.

The event, sponsored by top mining corporation Philex, serves as part of the Globe Business Amateur Golf Circuit and held as part of the birth centenary of BGCC founder Nanoy Ilusorio.

Keen competition is also seen in the 36-hole ladies event with Bianca Pagdanganan, Daniella Uy, Dana Gonzales and Sam Martines leading the cast of the event organized and conducted by NGAP in cooperation with BGCC.

Also on tap are the Mid-Amateur (age 30-54) and Seniors, also set over 36 holes over two days.
