Amica wins Ladies Championship Title
25-Nov-03
 
EastPoint Green Condo, Simei  - 
Ms Amica Lumanog of DBS Bank emerged victorious in her quest of becoming the first lady to be 
crowned “the champ” in the inaugural Ronald’s Cup Tournament for Ladies. She defeated Ms Milo 
Mataas of Citibank 6-1 6-1 in an hour of gruelling baseline rallies.  With her trademark “kanto-kanto” 
shot, she took  control of the match from the beginning against Milo who looks exhausted after 
a 3 day semifinal battle against Ms Roceliza Reyes of UOB.
 
 Amica posted a resounding 8-0 win-loss record in her round robin matches conceding only 8 games in 
her last 5 round robin matches. 3 is the number of games she conceded in her semifinal & final 
matches. With a perfect 10-0 win-loss record, she will ascend to the top of the ranking overtaking Milo. 
 
In by far the most exciting and breath-taking match in the history of Ronald’s Cup, the Ladies 
semifinal match between Milo and Roceliza goes to the history book as the longest match in the open 
era. It took 3 days (kasama yung pagtutuyo ng court) to decide which among the 2 will advance to the 
finals.  Milo, facing 5 match-point during the 3rd-set tie-breaker, rallied using her much dependable 
slice backhand to level 6-all.  Visibly shaken,  Roceliza conceded the next 2 points giving Milo the 
remaining berth for the Finals and the chance for the spectators to breathe…..Hayyyyyy…..
