Celestino "Tino" Mancao Tugot (6 April 1910 – 18 January 2010) was a Filipino professional golfer. Tugot is widely regarded as one of the best, if not the best golfers the Philippines has produced,[1] and the first Filipino athlete to step into the White House and shake hands with US President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1954.[2][3]
Tugot won his national open title six times between 1949 and 1962, including four consecutively from 1955[4] and represented the Philippines in the World Cup on ten occasions.[5]
