To all the sports enthusiasts, definitely this is a great news: The ICTSI Philippine Open, Asia’s oldest National Open that has welcomed many worthy champions such as Frankie Miñoza, Angelo Que, Artemio Murakami, Elmer Salvador, Wang Ter-Chang and defending champion Berry Henson, tees off today at the Wack-Wack Golf and Country Club.
Balls (SkyCable Channel 34), home of the world’s biggest sporting events, proudly airs live the historic 96th edition of the tourney on February 9 and 10, 1p.m. to 5p.m., and February 11 and 12, 12p.m. to 4p.m. Replays will commence on Studio 23 on February 10 to 13, 12:30a.m.

Que was the last Filipino to rule the Open in 2008. The year before Que’s win, it was Miñoza who claimed the victory for two years in a row.
Besides Miñoza and Que, other Filipino golf veterans such as Mars Pucay, Antonio Lascuña and teenager Miguel Tabuena will also play in the tournament.
Meanwhile, the Dubai Desert Classic, one of the European Tour’s premier events will also be aired on Balls on February 9 and 10, 9p.m. and February 10 and 11, 8p.m.
