Meanwhile the coastal city of Mombasa is set to play host to the Eleventh leg of the NCBA Golf Series in the same day on Saturday, Douglas Mwale-IMG KENYA LIMITED reports.
Over 180 golfers are set to congregate at the par-71 Nyali Golf & Country Club, looking to battle it out for top honors of the tournament.
The golfers will be competing for their chance to secure a spot to play in the tournament’s finals, with winners emerging in the overall gross, men’s category winner, men’s runner up, ladies’ winner, ladies’ runner up and juniors’ categories.
Also up for grabs at the tournament will be car for the hole-in-one challenge at the 18th hole, courtesy of Khushi Motors.
Speaking ahead of the tournament, NCBA Group Managing Director, John Gachora, said,”We are delighted to be heading back to the coastal region as we take the eleventh leg of the NCBA Golf Series to Nyali Golf & Country Club. This is yet another opportunity for us to present golfers in the region a chance to play in the series, and it is also an opportunity for us as NCBA to connect with our customers in the region. We are therefore excited for this tournament and it is our hope that we shall witness remarkable golf action and that golfers will have a great time playing at the tournament”.
The Nyali event follows the tenth leg held this past weekend at Muthiaga Golf Club that attracted an impressive 250 golfers in a highly competitive event.
Evans Vitisia claimed the Overall Gross Winner title with a remarkable score of 73 gross.
In the Men’s Gross category, handicap 2 golfer Kavit Bhakoo secured the top spot with 74 gross, beating Ben Murimi, playing off handicap 6, on countback.
Among the ladies, Nancy Ndungu, playing off handicap 7, emerged as the winner on countback with a score of 87 gross. Rachna Patel, playing off handicap 14, secured the second position with the same score.
At the same time, the Juniors category saw Junaid Manji as the winner with a score of 79 gross.
The six golfers became the latest addition to the growing list of players who have so far qualified to play at the tournament’s Grand Finale which is set to be hosted at Sigona Golf Club in December.
The Nyali Golf and Country Club is one of the only two 18-hole courses on the north Coast, the other one being Vipingo Ridge.
Nyali is one of the most challenging courses due to the windy conditions at the coast.
The golf course is one of the best maintained facilities along the Kenyan coast with a superbly manicured green, proper drainage system and a reliability that keeps the green throughout the year.
