Last month, retired police general Ed Basbas carded the lowest 67 gross among all golfers to win as the overall champion in the July edition of the Kafagway golf tournament.
It is the second time that Basbas emerged the top winner of the Kafagway golf series after he also fired a five-over par 61 in January 2020.
Pol Mayos carded 43 Molave points to win as champion in the member men’s class A followed by Mon Aldana and Ely Lagman with 42 points apiece. The member ladies’ A was topped by Nora Sy with 36 points while lawyer Henry Rosito had 50 points to win the men’s guest class A. – Harley F. Palangchao
