It was a sweet victory for Arcilla, who re-installed himself as the country’s No. 1 player after clinching his third consecutive Open title this year.
"My goal is to win the title. I didn’t perform well last year and I promised myself that I will do my best to win this year," said the 23-year-old Arcilla, who lost, 3-6, 3-6, to former national Pop Sabandon in the third round last year.
"I’ve been playing well and I hope to keep my winning form," said Arcilla, who won back-to-back titles in Bohol and Mandaue two weeks ago.
