DAVAO CITY: Fifteen-time champion Luisita Golf Club got a big lift from two new recruits to take a slim two-point lead over Del Monte Golf Club at the start of the 31stPhilippine Airlines Senior Interclub golf team championships. Chito Laureta, another fresh addition, added 48 and Jingy Tuason chipped in 47 as Luisita pooled 145 points. “We kind of expected to lead, but we didn’t expect the high scores,” said Luisita non-playing captain Jeric Hechanova, noting that players were allowed to lift and clean their balls. A huge disappointment was defending champion Canlubang which skidded to fourth place with 124, 21 points behind Luisita. “It was a humbling experience,” said many-time Spanish champion Mike Preysler who did not count for Canlubang with 35 points.
