Meanwhile, the organisers of the tourney have revealed that outstanding women will be rewarded by Toyota Nigeria Limited, especially those who have the chance of winning a special prize for the Amiable Woman of the Tournament.
The Manager, Marketing and Promotions, Smokin Hills Golf Resort, Bayo Aderinto, said, “The tournament is one of the biggest events in the golf calendar. The momentum is high as there have been under pressure from golf enthusiasts from across the country and even from some West African countries, including Ghana. They want to play in the tournament, but the championship is only limited to invited golfers. We are expecting 100 golfers while already over 200 golfers have declared their interest in the tournament.
“In line with the desire of Chief Michael Ade-Ojo to make this year’s tournament more of women because the person in whose memory the tournament was instituted was a woman, out of the 100 golfers expected to play at the tournament, 20 are women as against five invited last year. Again, out of the total entries those that cannot be accommodated in this tournament will be given preference in other events to be organised by the club.” Punch
