Patrombon San Carlos favorite
Jeson Patrombon hopes to keep his run of good form in pursuit of another championship as he leads the chase for the men’s singles Open crown in the PPS-PEPP Pintaflores Festival unfolding Tuesday at San Carlos City Tennis Courts in San Carlos, Negros Occidental.
From his emphatic victories in the Gov. Umali Cup, Fr. Suarez Cup, Brookside Open and Actifit Open this year, Patrombon sets out for another title romp.
Sharing center stage with the country’s leading players are the rising junior netters clashing in their side of the event, a Group 1 tournament offering ranking points in nine age-categories, and the veterans disputing top honors in the Legends 40s, 50s and 60s and women’s doubles.
Bliss Bayking and Ellaine Bahonsua and John David Velez and Cedric Bravo head the cast in the girls’ and boys’ 18-and-under division, respectively, with Velez and Bravo also looming as the players to beat in 16-U play.
