National Open draws elite doubles participants

Swiss International champions Peter Magnaye and Paul Vivas braces for a tough outing as they face a crack field in the men’s doubles of the P1.5 million Bingo Bonanza National Open badminton tournament, which gets under way on December 11 at the Rizal Memorial Badminton Center.

Coming off a breakthrough victory in the Swiss tilt, the Magnaye-Vivas tandem has been installed as the top pick in the upcoming event but will have their hands full against a talent-laden roster raring to foil their title bid in the tournament marking the revival of the country’s premier championship.
