Lascuña, Pactolerin cruise to victories

Antonio Lascufia and Robert Pactolerin put the finishing touches to a rewarding week by ruling their respective divisions yesterday in the Stronghold Insurance Senior Open at the unforgiving Hallow Ridge layout here.

Lascuiia closed out the centerpiece 50-59 (Senior) division play with a level-par 72, and Pactolerin a 76 in the 60-69 (Super Senior) as both won by a combined 15 shots. The 18-hole Legends (70-and-above) championship went the extra hole where Fabian del Rosario nipped Dave Hernandez.

The 54-year-old Lascuiia, the only man to win the PGT’s Order of Merit title five times, downplayed his status as the best in the rank, tallying a four-under-par 212 to win by five shots over Mars Pucay, who submitted a second straight 71. Rico Depilo shot an eagle-spiked 73 to finish three strokes behind.
