FRANCIS Gaston, the charismatic star from Bacolod, joins the wide-open chase for the Philippine Senior Amateur championship that tees off Wednesday at Summit Point in Lipa.

One of only a handful of men to win the regular PH Am and Senior titles, Gaston adds star power to the tournament that won’t have defending champion in Eddie Bagtas.

Rolly Viray, Dave Hernandez, Rudy Amata and Abe Avena are the other notables in the lean field that will dispute the crown over 54 holes using the regular men’s tee of the Robert Trent Jones Jr.-designed course.
