THE TOURNAMENT SCENE at Splendido Taal Golf and Country Club perked up early in the summer with members and guests trooping to the club for the Senate President’s Cup last March 7.

Under clear skies and a cool breeze blowing from the Taal Lake, the participants enjoyed the best weather possible and the splendid course condition made things even better for everyone.

“We’re very happy with the turnout, it really exceeded our expectations,” said Splendido general manager Teboy Javier.

Javier and his team prepared a special tournament for those who made the trek to the scenic layout, providing each player a pair of the latest-model Mizuno golf shoes not to mention the sumptuous food for the day courtesy of Delimondo.

Norie Casalme and Mansue Lukban (members) and Antono Cabangon and Ricky Alegre (guests/sponsors) led the winners by topping Class A with 46 and 43 points, respectively.

Jay Enrile, grandson of Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile in whose honor the tournament was held, represented the host family. He graced the occasion together with top jungolfer Miguel Tabuena.

Event sponsors were Hinge Inquirer Publications, Business Mirror, Ceza, Golforce, BanCom, RCBC, Ladera Culinary Services,Inc., Delimondo, Taal Vista Hotel, Sofitel, Poter’s Ridge Hotel, Santis Delicatesen, Fury Eyewear, Pilipinas Golf, Netforce, La Costa Spa, Club Car, Texas Eagle, Yamaha, Mizuno, Coke and Ducks Unlimited.
