Captain James Anzabwa of the Kakamega Golf Club shared his excitement about hosting this leg of the KCB East Africa Golf Tour. He praised the excellent condition of the course, particularly after the recent rainfall, which will undoubtedly provide an exhilarating challenge for the players.
In addition to the grand finale at Karen Country Club in November, the top two teams from this leg will secure a coveted opportunity to participate in the 2024 Magical Kenya Ladies Open Pro-Am event, adding an extra level of prestige and motivation to the competition.
