Cebuanos Jomar Jumapao and Alexis Sy stamped their class Wednesday to bag the boys’ and girls’ youth masters crowns of the 39th Philippine International Open Tenpin Bowling Championships at the Paeng’s Midtown Bowl inside the Robinson’s Place in Ermita, Manila.
A masters bronze medalist in the 8th Asian Schools tourney in Jakarta, Indonesia last April, BTA-Prima’s Jumapao, 20, racked up a 10-game series of 2,013 pinfalls in the finals to best TBAM-Prima’s Kevin Cu (1,986) by 27 pins in taking home P20,000.
Cu settled for the runner-up purse of 10,000 while TBAM-Prima-RP’s Ederick Florencio (1,971) took third and P5,000 in the kegfest sponsored by UPHS Dalta and Jonelta Systems, PAGCOR Sports, DOT, PSC, PCSO, Amway, Timberpro, and Colgate Palmolive.
On the other hand, TBAM-Prima-RP’s Sy garnered a 10-game series of 2,002, lording it over fellow national pool teammate and world women’s championship veteran Kim Lao (1,950) in pocketing the first prize of P15,000.
