Here are the results from the last round of SGC’s golf summer season’s held at Lionhead Masters golf course last Sunday:
PLAYER of the YEAR (POY): In hopes of producing drama down the closing stretch, yes it came to that thrilling conclusion to no one’s surprise. Jimmy Manguerra, closing hard with a sparkling one over par gross score of 73, he separated himself from the field. How extraordinary these numbers were, he finished the wet day posting an impressive romp of winning the POY title, sharing the day prize & the Nassau total net, GRAND FINALS contest and the SUPER SERIES 5 first prize. The POY victory also propelled his second POY crown in twelve years since 2006. Second one was a charm, wasn’t it? A fiery JC Montilla when asked how he lost the tight POY race down to the last round, “I did not lose it, Jimmy won it for himself”. This was a simple but dignified display of appreciation and sportsmanship of a fellow competitor. It was no surprise that Jimmy took the liking of capturing the best scoring gross player of the season. Let me see, he won this title for the ninth time in twelve long years. Well done indeed.
SENIOR PLAYER of THE YEAR (SPOY): Joey Cruz refuses to rest on last year’s laurels. Mind you, he won all three major awards last year – POY, SPOY & MIP. He had no inclination he was finished making that brilliant run as there was no contest in capturing his second SPOY title in a row.
MOST IMPROVED PLAYER (MIP): One senior member had a fitting send-off that fitted the bill for a player who would come up short of expectations for the past long years. Fred Halili punched his ticket to seizing the MIP award with an astonishing finish leaving even the very best of them in his wake. Got ya all. Right Fred?
