Mendoza wins 1st CCC jungolf monthly medal
Fresh from contributing to Paref-Springdale’s victory in the recent Samsung Interscholastic tourney, Martin Mendoza wasted no time in bringing his winning form to the July Junior Monthly Medal in Cebu Country Club last Sunday.
Mendoza, an 18 handicapper who goes by the nickname Niño, shot a gross 87 to net a 69 to tie Hannah Wong. However, he took the gold via countback, thanks to a strong finish including a sizzling 40 in the back nine, while Wong had to settle for silver.
Finishing one stroke behind and taking the bronze, was Naomi Tatara who shot 104 to net 70. This was Mendoza’s first monthly medal title and Wong’s second consecutive silver medal.
In the race for the quarterly lowest gross trophy, Wong and Gio Gandionco are tied for the lead after identical scores of 80. The winner for this quarter will be the lowest aggregate total for the July, August, and September monthly medals.
The next monthly medal is tentatively scheduled for August 20. (PR)
