About 150 golfers will grace the fifth edition of the NCBA golf series set for Kakamega Sports Club on June 10.

This year, the series returns to Kakamega as a qualifier, and nearby clubs, including Nyanza Golf Club, will participate in the all-day competition.

This qualifying event will take place against the backdrop of consumer engagement for the one-year milestone set for June 9 on Friday.

The winners of the overall gross, men's, women's, and junior divisions will earn a spot in the Grand Finale.

The competition comes after the fourth leg, which was held successfully on May 25 at Thika Sports Club and drew a strong field of 256 golfers.

David Matano prevailed over a strong group of rivals to claim victory.

In the men's division, Simon Ndung'u won, and Naomi Kimata was named the best female golfer.

Garcia Kimemia emerged as the champion among the juniors. These four outstanding golfers earned their qualification for the series' grand finale scheduled for December.

This year's edition consists of 17 club qualifier events hosted at various golf clubs in Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda.

So far, the Series has enjoyed successful tournaments at the Railway Golf Club, Limuru Country Club, Windsor Golf Hotel and Country Club and Thika Sports Club.

Additionally, the Series includes two junior tournaments, with the first one having taken place in Uganda in March and the upcoming one scheduled for the Nyali Golf Club in November.
