Retains,Gov.,Dimaporo

MANILA, Philippines — Johnny Arcilla secured another Open crown, adding to his impressive collection with a victory in the Gov. Imelda Dimaporo National Open at the Mindanao Civic Center court in Lanao del Norte recently.

Unlike his hard-fought three-set victory over Eric Jed Olivarez in last month's Olivarez Cup, however, this win came more easily as his opponent, Alexis Acabo, retired due to fatigue after the opening set, which Arcilla won, 6-1.Acabo's decision to withdraw spoiled what could have been an exhilarating conclusion to an excitement-filled tournament in Lanao del Norte.

The many-time PCA Open champion showcased his vast repertoire of shots to convincingly win the opening set of the final showdown in the tournament presented by Dunlop.In the men's doubles, Fritz Verdad and Rolly Saga stunned the Arcilla-Ledama pair in the semis and then defeated Jose Maria Pague and Eric Tangub, 7-5, 6-3, to clinch the crown in the event hosted by Mayor Dimaporo and organized by Provincial Sports Coordinator Nelson Lasola.
