Ed \u201cDoi\u201d Tenorio\u2019s qualifying score of net 66 fell by the wayside when Bill Kaipat bettered the mark by a stroke Sunday at the Laolao Bay Golf Resort east course.<\/p>\n
Kaipat fired a net score of 65 after taming the greens and the fairways with a 38 on the front nine and 39 on the back for a gross score of 77, which minus his 12 handicap, gave him the score to beat in the monthly competition.<\/p>\n
Alex Aquinigoc edged Sasaki Oliver for runner-up honors. Both duffers wound up with identical net scores of 68. Aquinigoc, however, had a better net score on the front nine, 31.5-33, to take second place.<\/p>\n
The 15-handicap Aquinigoc came away with a 38 on the front and 45 on the back for a gross score of 83.<\/p>\n
Oliver finished tied with the lowest gross score of the day with his two-under par 70 (34 in the front nine and 35 in the back nine).<\/p>\n
Louie Pelisamen extricated himself from a stickier situation in the battle for fourth place, nipping Joe \u201cKamikaze\u201d Camacho, his namesake Louie Tilipao, and youth golfer James Balajadia in a front nine net tiebreaker.<\/p>\n
All four shot identical net scores of 69, but Pelisamen (front nine net score of 34) beat out Camacho (34.5), and Balajadia (35), Tilipao (39.5).<\/p>\n
