The golfers from Nairobi are Agnes Nyakio, a handicap five player and Aisha Duba (15) from Golf Park as well as Sigona’s Rachel Ndei and Christine Kerubo. Some of the local ladies expected to battle it out for the top honours include former Nyali chairman Christine Ockotch, Florence Karimi and the on-form Joyce Masai.
The event, which marks the end of lady captain Terry Odoo’s term, has attracted sponsorship including those of Kenya Ports Authority and Kenya Civil Aviation Authority.
