Defending champion San Miguel-Northern Cement hung tough on a day of ballooning scores yesterday, pooling 108 points built around the eight-over-par 69 worth 38 of Jingky Tuazon to stay five points ahead of Manila Southwoods after three rounds of centerpiece Fil Championship play of the 67th Fil-Am Invitational.

The talented Seniors field struggled over the up-and-down, tree-lined Country Club layout in Baguio and San Miguel-Northern Cement played hard enough to match Southwoods’ 108 and take a 373 tally into today’s final round.

Eddie Bagtas, the former pro and undoubtedly one of the finest players in the ranks, and Bing Sison chipped in 27 apiece, with Chito Laureta, the highest pointer for San Miguel in the second round on Monday, contributing 26.
