Romy Francisco - Champion
2009 Pilipino Inter Club Open
When SWAGGERS get together to show some muscle, they just get the job done right!! Our very own, Romy Francisco squelched all doubt and rumblings about who was going to be the champion that day. He finished with a gross 79 to once again be crowned the PICO Champion.
The new back to back Champion claims his prize and really made it look easy.
Lito DeGuzman captured the closest to the pin.
The course was rocked with a triumphant yell late in the day as Peter Hollnsteiner proclaimed, "First time in my life!!! Woohoo!! I finally got the long drive, baby!". He summoned those Popeye-like arm power to fire the longest drive of the event! And just to seal this moment into memory, our fearless leader, Kelly Concepcion awarded some ProV1 balls to commemorate it.
Team SWAG finished third place for the event. A great showing of team players led by Dan DeGuzman who rallied Cash, Z-man and Lito on the eve of the event so team SWAG could have a good participation at this event. No stones were left unturned as he called out to Rod Castillo to go into battle for SWAG. Rod churned out a respectable net 79 to boost the team.
Once again, we may not know what lies in the future but with golf, SWAG will always get together and work together to create one that makes everyone look back and say, "How do these guys do it!"
