S’woods tilt blasts off

Shut out of the top 10 last year, Filipino aces led by Miguel Tabuena aim for redemption against foreign rivals in the $60,000 ICTSI Manila Southwoods Championship starting Wednesday at the Legends course in Carmona, Cavite.

Malaysian Gavin Green won last year’s edition by two shots over Singaporean Koh Deng Shan, typifying the foreigners’ dominance then.

Tabuena wound up joint 13th, the best among the locals who’ll also be counting on Tony Lascuña and Clyde Mondilla.
Tabuena hopes to wield the form that pushed him past South African Mathiam Keyser at Luisita last week.
