Tony Lascuña shouldered himself past a fading Arnold Villacencio with a flawless four-under 66, overhauling a three-stroke deficit for a two-stroke lead and a crack at another crown in the P1 million Negros Occidental Classic at the Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club here in Bacolod on Friday.

It was actually Lascuna’s second straight bogey-free round after a 68 Thursday tied him with Michael Bibat at second, three shots behind Villacencio halfway through the 72-hole championship. But his 66, coupled with Villacencio’s backside meltdown for a 71, put Lascuna into a familiar place and closer to a third leg title in this year’s ICTSI Philippine Golf Tour.
