                    [Summary] => CARMONA — Unfancied Dan Cruz skipped some legs to fine-tune his swing. Now he found himself taking a big leap and eyeing a leg win. 


Cruz fired a stirring bogey-free six-under par 66 in an otherwise fine day at the Legends Course of the Manila Southwoods yesterday, surging past a host of fancied players and into the lead halfway through the First Gentleman’s Professional Golf Circuit here.

The 31-year-old Sinfuego’s superb short game — and a few incredible recoveries — saved him from what could have been a disastrous stint at his home course, riding on a three-birdie blitzkrieg from the second hole to grab the upperhand.
