Sydney Enriquez and Eric Tangub are the favored bets in the Palawan Pawnshop-Palawan Express Pera Padala Ozamiz National age-group tennis tournament, which kicked off on Friday at Ozamiz Tennis Club.
Enriquez has been a dominant force in the girls’ 16- and 18-and-under divisions in past stops of the yearlong, nationwide circuit.
Tangub, from Tukuran, Zamboanga del Sur, will brace for a stiff encounter with Nash Agustines, Ashton Villanueva, Sebastian Lagamon, Steve Sonsona and Divo Pepito.
Close to 200 players are vying for titles and ranking points in the five-day tournament put up by Palawan Pawnshop and sanctioned by the Unified Tennis Philippines.
Next up is the Tangub leg on March 28 to April 1. For details and listup, call PPS-PEPP sports program development director Bobby Mangunay at 0915-4046464.
