survivor philippines: zita wins first individual immunity challenge

the oldest member of the merged tribe chalam became the first individual immunity challenge winner of survivor philippines. zita, tha laudrywoman and naak tribe's mother won the challenge by a wide margin over much youger cast aways.

the challenge is a 2 stage challenge. in the first stage, the cast aways will run from the starting point to the enclosure. they must dig into the sand to get into the enclosure. first 5 cast aways to complete this and step into the mat will advance to the next stage. the cast aways were quite even in this stage, with jace, jc, zita, charisse and veronica advancing to the second stage. marlon got stuck under the fence since the hole he dug was too small. kiko choose the wrong spot to dig. cris's leg got stuck while kaye and rob were not even visible in the challenge.

in the second stage, the survivor would again dig a hole to get into the next enclosure where sticks and ropes are scattered. they need to build a pole long enough to reach the key to the shackles that they are wearing in their wrists. once they unlock the shackles, they would again dig to the next enclosure where they need to cross the maze and run to the finish mat. first person to step on the mat wins individual immunity.

jc, jace and zita were the first one to enter the 2nd enclosure. charisse soon followed. jc and zita were the first ones to try reaching for the key. zita was the successful one. veronica only entered the enclosure after zita reached the key. zita was able to unlock the shackles and from then on, never looked back and eventually won the challenge.

zita is assured of at least 4 more days in the island. who will be voted out next? will naak continue to stick together? will jarakay be able to stir things up? will they vote for the physical threat or the weakest link? tribal council is coming this friday. who will be the first jury member?
