What you need to know:

  • Only the first round was played and completed on Friday, while Saturday’s round was cancelled after an inspection of the course by tournament referees
  • At Kakamega Sports Club, the home team of Cedric Konzolo, Jack Songwa, Victor Muhando and Julius Oketch produced a superb total of 116 points, to clinch the top prize in the Kakamega leg of the 2024 KCB East Africa golf tour
  • At Machakos Golf Club’s par 72 course, lady golfer Vivian Kosgei posted 40 points to top the winners list in the Wakili Golf Day

This year’s Golf Park Open golf tournament whose second round was cancelled due to the poor condition of the course following the heavy rain on Saturday morning, has now been cancelled altogether until at a time when the course will be in a playable condition.

A brief statement from the Kenya Golf Union said: “Due to inclement weather, and flooding on the course, we regret to inform you that the tournament has been cancelled. Safety is our top priority, and we appreciate your understanding. We will keep you updated on any rescheduling plans.’’
