Luscious par 72 Nyanza Golf Club will host the sixth leg of the KCB East Africa golf tour in Kisumu County this weekend.
The much-anticipated tournament is expected to attract 110 golfers as two teams aim to seal a spot in the grand finale to be held at the Karen Country Club later this year.
KCB has held five legs of the tour so far – Vetlab, Limuru, Railways, Eldoret and Kakamega golf courses.
KCB group director marketing and communication Rosalind Gichuru said: “We are happy to head to the Lakeside city of Kisumu for the sixth leg of the series. So far through our women and juniors golf clinics, we have reached over 500 participants.
"This underscores the impact we are having in the counties we have traversed. It is our objective to reach more participants as the series continue," she added.
Two weeks ago, Catherine Aura led her team comprising of Ronald Omondi, Beatrice Otieno and Derek Mwaura to glory at the 9-hole Kakamega golf course away in Kakamega County.
Nyanza Golf Club captain Thomas Odongo said: “We welcome the KCB East Africa Golf series to one of the most challenging golf courses in the country. It will be interesting to see how various golfers will navigate the course. We hope to have a good outing”.
Eight teams have so far qualified for the grand finale slated for November.
