Que takes charge but rain halts play

DASMARINAS, Cavite: Angelo Que stumbled and recovered coming off a first weather delay and took the clubhouse lead over Aussie Damien Jordan and Zanieboy Gialon when play was stopped the second time around due to heavy rain halfway through the $100,000 Aboitiz Invitational at the Orchard’s Palmer course here on Thursday.

The long-hitting, late-starting Japan PGA Tour campaigner extended his birdie-binge in his solid first round 65 with back-to-back feats from No. 2 to draw level with Jordan and Gialon, who had wrapped up their respective morning rounds with 70 and 71, respectively, before play was stopped due to lightning threat.
