Golf duo struggling for sponsorship

Rwanda’s top two professional golfers Jean Baptiste Hakizimana and Emmanuel Ruterana are struggling to get sponsorship to take part in the prestigious Uganda Golf Open scheduled for September 21-24 at Par 72 Kitante golf course. The pair, who has been training for over three weeks at the Nyarutarama golf course, told Times Sport yesterday that they need USD 2000 (about Rwf 1.2m) that includes competition fees, transport, caddy fees and up keep for the 4-day tournament.
