Rosales, the PNP provincial director for Cavite, and Ignacio had 67-64 to emerge as the Class B leaders while Almagro-Gulapa grabbed the Class C leadership also with their rounds of 67-64 at the Dye and Faldo courses of Eagle Ridge.
The all-Korean partnership of Oh Kwang Taek and Kim Sun Ho had 66 and 64 points, respectively, to pull ahead in Class A with their 130.
Jeric Ang, meanwhile, scored a hole-in-one on the eighth hole of the Dye course to highlight the first day action. Ang made his ace Friday with a Ping 7-iron and a Maxfli ball while in the company of Oliver Gan, Ben del Rosario and Errol Dy. He, however, failed to bag the jackpot prize, a Ford Ranger, which was staked in another hole of the Dye (17th).

GG&A Club Development, Inc., Microtel-Eagle Ridge, Aqua Dyne Drilling, Inc., G-Shop, Inc., Sta. Lucia Golf Cart Corp., JRICO Trade Investment and Mandarin Hotel are the other sponsors.
