GEN. TRIAS, Cavite – Tony Lascuña rode on a near-impeccable frontside charge to dislodge Orlan Sumcad then survived a late hole mishap and the erstwhile leader’s late fightback to wrest a one-stroke lead after three rounds of the ICTSI Eagle Ridge Invitational at the Aoki layout here yesterday.
Lascuña rattled off four birdies against a bogey at the front, overcoming an early two-shot deficit to storm to a three-stroke lead as Sumcad went one-over after 10 holes but the latter cashed in on a two-shot swing on No. 17 with a birdie from four feet coupled with Lascuña’s three-putt miscue, setting the stage for a shootout for the top P360,000 purse in the P2 million event sponsored by International Container Terminal Services, Inc.
