The Par 73 Ruiru Golf Course will host the annual legendary golf tourney tomorrow that is expected to draw more than 320 golfers from different clubs in the country.
Legendary Golfers is a multi-disciplinary group of professionals brought together by the game of golf.
The 18-hole course along Thika superhighway will be a beehive of activity from early morning.
The club captain JK Muraguri said they have partnered with some of the top corporate brands to organize the tournament that will see the winners grab top prizes.
The event is powered by among others First Assurance, Floor Knight, Gelian Hotel Machakos, Ngambi Fresh, Kwetu Real Estate.
“We are delighted to host some of the biggest names in the sport this weekend” Muraguri said.
The roster of competitors include Rhoda Mukami, Stephen Lokonyo, Sophie Mbochi, James Ngambi, Kibera Maina as well as single handicap long hitting Bernard Omondi, Joe Muendo and Beatrice Waweru.
Mukami who was crowned the overall winner of the Institute of Public Finance (IPF) golf tournament held last month said she is optimistic of pulling a similar victory tomorrow.

“I am looking forward to picking up from where I left having won over 240 top amateurs. It is going to be a very tough battle against the best golfers in the country, but I believe with my experience and good run of form I will emerge victorious in this tourney. My swing is there, and I intend to make a statement right from the onset,” Mukami said.
The event is part of the Ruiru Sports Club series of activities that began earlier in the year with corporate entities like IPF hosting tournaments.
The club vice-captain Justus Mathenge said players and spectators will be treated to fun moments laced with food and entertainment.
In December last year Ruiru Sports Club marked 100 years of existence with a Centenary Golf Day Tournament graced by 1000 guests.
