Gonzales, Molina head local drive in Legaspi tennis
ACTION in the Palawan Pawnshop-Palawan Express Pera Padala regional age group tennis tournament shifts to Legazpi City starting today with Jennard Gonzales and Kurt Angelo Molina heading the huge field vying for titles at DPWH-RES Tennis Club in Albay.
Gonzales, one of the rising stars from the host city, and Molina from Daet, hope to build some momentum with a strong start but remain wary of their chances against a strong field in the four-day tournament sponsored by Palawan Pawnshop and hosted by Nards Gonzales, president of DPWH-RES Tennis Club.
Jan Harold Trillanes, from Iriga, is also expected to contend for the crown along with Naga City’s Nolan Gagalac and Jolo Basa, Ryan Taller and Kevin Madrid from Tabaco City, and Ligao City’s JC Gonzales, Jumari Gonzales and Kate Prianes.

“This tournament is a big boost not only to youth tennis here but to local sports as well and we thank Palawan Pawnshop for including Legazpi City in its calendar of events,” said Albay Rep. Al Francis Bichara.
