Cebu closes gap
on Marapara bets

BY CEDELF TUPAS

Cebu Country Club stole the thunder from host Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club yesterday as the founders' division headed for a wire-to-wire finish in the Philippine Airlines Interclub in Bacolod City.

Playing in his home-course, club champion Jae Yang came up with 32 points or a 4-over-par 74 in medal play as the Negrenses collected 110 points yesterday for a 337 total after three rounds in the second division.

But they saw their 12-point advantage slashed to three with the Cebuanos, buoyed by 31 points from Carl Almario, turning in a tournament-best output of 119 points to raise its record to 334 points.
