MANILA, Philippines — IT'S 18 and still counting for the Philippines' 100th year participation in the Olympics with swimmers Kayla Sanchez and Harold Hatch and judoka Kiyomi Watanade making the grade for Paris.

And the roster could increase to 20 pending the International Golf Federation's (IGF) official announcement of the Paris qualifiers which, to date, has Bianca Pagdanganan at No. 35 and Dottie Ardina at No. 55 in the top 60 cut off for the Olympics.
