The 2024 MTN Monthly Tee curtains will majestically be lowered with the season-ending Grand Tee of Tees on Saturday, 14th December at the lake-side par-71 Entebbe Golf Club.
A large field of over 200 golfers from different clubs in the country is expected to grace the fairways for the gruelling action that tees off as early as 7:00 am.
Whilst the main focus will be on the golfers on the order of merit, the subsidiaries too will be taken into consideration with juicy prizes.
One eye-catching competition will be on the tricky par-3 Hole 8 as the golfers will eye the mega prize for the hole-in-one (ace); the all-new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado from CFAO Mobility.
Hole 8 remains one of the most tricky holes on the course, with a tree on the left of the green as one drives off from the tee box.
The good omen signs could shine on the lucky golfer with the ace in a week where pro golfer David Kamulindwa hit a hole-in-one during the Kileleesi Grand Kwacha grand on par-3 Hole 16.
Back to the order of merit; there is stiff competition among the top four female golfers on who will take the coveted prize.
Entebbe Club lady captain Jovia Namaara Tugume (575), Pamela Tumusiime (577), Bridget Basiima (580) and Diana Nabukenya (597) are all within reach for the women’s grand prize.
For the men, Saidi Kirarira Twijukye (558) is a clear-cut run-away with the top gong.
Perhaps, it will not be a walk in the park as Raymond Ekwamu (570), Mathias Kalule (571), Richard Oloka (574), Lloyd Busuulwa (576) and Ronald Gayiya (576) are all keeping the faith alive
