MIGUEL Tabuena is wasting no time in giving himself the best shot to win the revival of the Smart In-
finity Philippine Open next week, as he goes through his yardages with a new caddy and taking his new man on the bag around the Manila Southwoods Masters course every day.Kenneth Quillinan, an Irishman who used to carry the bag of Sang Moon-bae in the US PGA, was bro-ken in by Tabuena and his team at the Masters on Thursday. He will be with the Filipino star for his next three events as the team would love to have that partnership going off with a bang next week.
But it's going to be tough because a lot of very good players — all those who kept their cards save for a few — are coming over.'The 30-year-old will be coming off a relatively longer layoff after the last season, and he and coach J3 Altea are going through everything to make sure that his swing is where they want it.'They exhibited great rapport out there, from what I saw,' Altea said of the Tabuena-Quillanan part-nership.
