David Rwiyamirira scored 70 Nett to come out on top in the handicap 0-9 ahead of John Thairu, 72 Nett, and Kennedy Murichu, who returned 73 Nett.

The seniors’ handicap 0-27 category was claimed by V. Chhikara, who returned 68 Nett, two shots better than first runner-up Kim Moon (70 Nett), while Biru Rai finished third with 72 Nett.

K.J.Lee scored 73 Nett to claim the women’s top prize beating Alice Rwigema (79 Nett), Sheetal Philip – 80 Nett, and Liu Huifang – 81 Nett, who took second, third and fourth places respectively.
