Youthful Godfrey Chisale came second earning himself a trophy,.

In the women category, Ruth Mvula was top of the notch and Airtel spoiled her with a trophy. Wilson stand bag, Ipad mini and a 2GB memory stick.

In his remarks, Airtel Malawi managing director Heiko Schlittke said the Mzuzu golf tourney was a completion of the golf crusade that Airtel had undertaken recently.

“We appreciate their participation in our tournaments and this demonstrates the golfers’ high level commitment towards uplifting our investment in the sport of golf,” said Schlittke who teed off the tourney.
