Bacolod Golf Club stuns heavyweights

BACOLOD CITY, Philippines — The Bacolod Golf Club got to a position to make history as the first senior team to win the PAL Interclub title while competing in the Founders Division.

As top teams across the country struggled, the host club seized the opportunity, building a 10-point lead after an impressive 141-point performance at the Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club yesterday. This came after a solid 148-point showing at their home course last Monday, giving Bacolod 289 points.

The competition in the championship flight remains tight, with Canlubang at 279 points, just three points ahead of Manila Southwoods. Cebu Country Club and Luisita are tied at 274 while Del Monte is close behind at 273.

With Bacolod set to join the championship flight at its home course today, an intense battle among the six clubs is expected.

Aguinaldo and Cebu Country Club have both claimed the overall title while competing in the men’s regular Founders Division.
