Samuel Chege from Thika Sports Club claimed his maiden Sunshine Development Tour – East Africa Swing title after winning the fourth leg of the tour at Nyali Golf and Country Club. Chege moved from ninth place to clinch the title on the final day of competition.
Chege played a six-under-par 65 to finish the tournament on seven-under-par 206, the lowest total of the week. His brilliant closing round featured seven birdies on the 1st, 4th, 5th, 7th, 11th, 16th and 17th holes, with his only blemish coming on the 12th hole. The victory marked the first Sunshine Development Tour title of his professional career and capped a remarkable turnaround after an opening-round 75 had left him well down the leaderboard. Muthaiga Golf Club's Greg Snow and defending champion Njoroge Kibugu of Windsor Golf shared second place after both finished on five-under-par 208 overall.
