MANILA, Philippines — Johnny Arcilla seeks another Open crown while Eric Jed Olivarez wants redemption as they headline the Mayor Eric Olivarez National Tennis Championships, which got going yesterday in Sucat, Parañaque

To accommodate the large number of participants in Series 2, including those competing in the juniors category next week, organizers have utilized the Olivarez Sports Center and the Parañaque courts for the two-week event.

The spotlight, however, will be on the Group A tournament, with Arcilla aiming for another championship after edging out Olivarez in a thrilling three-set match in Series I last June.

The victory improved the 44-year-old Arcilla’s head-to-head record against Olivarez to 4-1, but the latter is determined to get back at the 10-time PCA Open champion.
