Cyna Rodriguez used a hot start to cushion a sputtering finish, salvaging a 3-under-par 69 to wrest a two-shot lead over long shot and first round leader Sarah Ababa in the ICTSI Riviera Ladies Classic at the Couples layout in Silang, Cavite.

Starting the day two shots behind, Rodriguez wiped out the deficit with three straight birdies to open the round and finished with a 32 for her first nine holes on the way to a 36-hole 139.

Ababa, whose first round 68 made heads turn on Wednesday, could not replicate that performance and settled for birdie-less 73.
