Tolentino for a time was the top player in the ITF junior rankings.[4] The right-hander reached his highest singles ATP-ranking on August 31, 1987, when he became world No. 437. Tolentino participated in Davis Cup ties for the Philippines from 1984 to 1987, posting a 4–5 record in singles.[3]
In 1982, Tolentino clinched the men's single title at the Philippine Columbian Association Open at age 16 over 28-year old Ody Gabriel. This made Tolentino the winner who had the widest age gap with their final opponent of 12 years. This record would be broken by 18-year old Bryan Otico who won a PCA Open title against an opponent 14 years older than himself.[5] Tolentino also became the youngest PCA Open champion, a record broken by Alberto Lim Jr. in 2015 by two months.[6]
