Que’s familiarity with TCC a Solaire Open plus
MANILA, Philippines–If there’s one man who knows how to best play windswept The Country Club—and win there with regularity—it can only be Angelo Que.
The jolly 35-year-old looms as the best Filipino hope when the $300,000 Solaire Open tees off on Thursday at the exclusive layout.
Que is aiming to snap a long victory drought on the Asian Tour over a course where he has scored multiple, multimillion-peso victories.

He has won three pro tournaments at TCC while finishing runner-up once.
Former TCC Invitational winners Frankie Miñoza, Cassius Casas and Antonio Lascuña also head the local challenge against a crack foreign field that includes former Philippine Open champion Mardan Mamat of Singapore, Thai veterans Prayad Marksaeng and Thaworn Wiratchant.
