Pagnanawon rules opening stage Jaybop Pagnanawon outshone big guns Irish Valenzuela and Baler Ravina to rule the 172.7-kilometer Stage One in the Visayas Leg of the Ronda Pilipinas 2015 presented by LBC that started in Dumaguete, Negros Oriental and ended in Sipalay City in Negros Occidental yesterday. Pagnanawon showed he was the son of his father, 1986 Marlboro Tour champion Rolando, by topping the relatively flat stage in four hours, 25 minutes and 10 seconds, besting Valenzuela and Ravina, who checked in at second and third places with times of 4:25.11 and 4:25.12, respectively. "My father taught me to be confident of my abilities and to work hard to achieve my dream," said the 26-year-old Pagnanawon, a native of Talisay in Cebu, who is representing Team Negros. |
