Sta. Lucia, Purefoods
begin title series tonight
BY CEDELF TUPAS

Sta. Lucia's Negrense coach Boyet Fernandez doesn't care if he sounds like a broken record, stressing defense will decide the best-of-seven Philippine Cup finals series between the Realtors and the Purefoods Giants.

He also doesn't mind if a victory in the 7:30 p.m. Game 1 showdown tonight will spoil his fellow Negrense and Purefoods top gun James Yap's birthday celebrations.

“We need to play good defense against Purefoods. If we cannot stop James ( Yap ) and Kerby (Raymundo), we can at least limit their production,” Fernandez told the DAILY STAR in a telephone interview.

The Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club in Bacolod City and the Bacolod Golf and Country Club in Murcia are bracing for the staging of what has been considered the biggest Philippine Airlines Interclub starting next week.

Close to 2,000 golfers from about 180 teams are coming to the city for the Feb. 21-March 1 tournament and officials from both clubs have expressed their readiness to host one of the most prestigious tournaments in the country. Marapara and Binitin also co-hosted the tournament in 2005.

The NOGCC has spruced up facilities to accommodate more people with the second floor of its clubhouse transformed into an air-conditioned function room. Its pro-shop was opened late last year.
