RP'S TECSON 3RD IN AUSSIE JUNGOLF CHAMPIONSHIP
Sydney, Australia, Oct. 5, 1989 - Despite an 88 in the morning and an 86 at the end of the day, Filipino entry Jenz Tecson finished 3rd in the 1998 New South Wales State Junior Golf Championship at the par 72 Glenmore Country Club.
The 12-year-old high school student started with a 91 in the first round, followed by an 87 which qualified him to enter the third and final round, a gruelling one-day, 36-hole event played Thursday.
Tecson's two brothers Freence and Win Win, Paolo Garcia and Mark Tanunliong, completed the Philippine team. Only Jenz Tecson made the grade.
The five young golfers are moving on to Cessnock, New South Wales for the Jack Newton International Junior Golf Classic slated to start this week.
