Zaragosa triumphs as rain washes out final round

(UPDATE) RUPERT Zaragosa claimed his second career Philippine Golf Tour crown in a weather-affected tournament, as torrential rain brought by Severe Tropical Storm Kristine forced the cancellation of the third and final round at the ICTSI Negros Occidental Classic on Friday in Bacolod City.

The relentless downpour turned the Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club into an unplayable landscape, forcing the tournament to be cut down to 36 holes. This followed an earlier decision to shorten the season-ending 72-hole event to 54 holes on Wednesday due to already adverse conditions.
