A total of 70 players teed off at the Q-School, with the top 50 set to earn a Sunshine Development Tour card, allowing them to compete in the Tour’s East Africa Swing.
The tournament also boasts a Sh1 million prize fund, with the winner pocketing Sh182,000.
Hardwork on the practice range is paying off for Kenya’s leading amateur golfer, John Lejirmah.
Fresh from his dominant 10-shot victory at the Kisii Open on Sunday, the Royal Nairobi Golf Club player and national team captain stormed to an early lead in the Sunshine Development Tour Q-School at Great Rift Golf Resort, Naivasha. Lejirmah carded a solid three-under-par 68 on Monday to top the leaderboard after round one.
