Kenya has developed golfing, and the world is taking note.

Over the last 5 years, Kenya has steadfastly grown and made strides in the development of golf and is now being widely recognized as Africa’s premier golf destination. They say, the prevailing all-weather season and other attributes such as connectivity from a golf course to a beach or a game drive within the towns keeps drawing golfers to Kenya and promoting golf tourism.

Karen Country Club, East and Central Africa’s finest and prettiest course, recently hosted a number of female golfers from The Emirates Golf Club, Dubai, UAE, to a friendly three-ball competition. The Karen Country Club Ladies Golf section led by their Lady Captain Martha Vincent turned out enthusiastically not to only welcome their counterparts but to also participate in the friendly afternoon competition.

Later in the evening, the visiting golfers were hosted to a prize giving cocktail at the stunning Fairway Restaurant at Karen Country Club overlooking the beautiful green course against the day’s sunset. The event was attended by among others, Karen Country Club’s GM Robert Onyango, Golf Captain James Ngotho, Lady Captain Martha Vincent, Paulynne Kabuga, Grace Mayani, Betty Gacheru, Rose Mambo, Eunice Koome, Pettie Ndolo, Louisa Gitau, Susie Carmichael, Wendy Turmell, and Doreen Muriithi.
