SPIN.ph editor Dodo Catacutan, Philippine Star sports editor Nelson Beltran and former national player Jerome Delariarte were the big winners in the 3rd PSA Cup golf tournament hosted by the Manila Southwoods Golf and Country Club on Monday.

The Daily Tribune’s Rey Bancod finished second on a net 74, beating Inquirer Golf’s Jong Arcano (third placer) and Dante Navarro via countback.

Beltran retained his Class B title in the tournament hosted by Southwoods at its famed Masters layout, which will be the site of the Philippine Open’s revival in January after a five-year absence.

Beltran and the Business Mirror’s Aldrin Quinto both shot 81s, but the former won via countback.
