Rupert Zaragosa and Luigi Guerrero rode on a pair of fiery frontside assaults to shoot identical four-under 68s and wrest control in the men’s side while three shared the women’s lead at the start of the 2016 Philippine Amateur Open Match Play Golf Championship at the Orchard Golf and Country Club in Dasmariñas, Cavite yesterday.

Zaragosa, seeking a follow-up to his victory in the first MVPSF Visayas Regional Match Play in Cebu two weeks ago, gunned down three birdies in the first nine holes and closed out with two more against a bogey in scorching heat to pace the 36-hole stroke play elims of the annual event sponsored by the MVP Sports Foundation, Smart, PLDT and Metro Pacific Investments Corp. and hosted by Ochard Golf and Country Club.
