Getting to know Borgy Manotoc
When asked: How did ‘Borgy’ come about?
“When I was born, I had a hole in my heart as well as an irregular and slow heart beat. At the time, I shared this physical trait with the iconic tennis player Bjorn Borg and so, my father, Tommy Manotoc (sportsman) coined the name Borgy for me.”
