Entebbe, Uganda | PHILLIP CORRY | Henry Nsubuga and his partner, Picole Lukyamuzi, overcame a formidable pair of John Paul Basabose and Kin Karisa, to advance to the Grand Finale of the Stanbic MatchPlay final due August 2 at the Lakeside Entebbe Club.
“We have had a wonderful match play against a formidable duo of Basabose and Karisa however, we worked in perfect harmony to eventually win the tie 5/4 on hole 14,” Nsubuga said.
“It’s a very good feeling to be in the final because it wasn’t something I had personally considered until we won against Sam Kachungira and Vicent Katusi. From then on, I thought we could move further. Reaching the final was a welcome surprise,” said Lukyamuzi.
The Entebbe duo of Charles Kabunga and Steven Kitamirike, overcame the couple of Evelyne Atukunda and Ellis Katwebaze 3/1 to make it to the final.
The subsidiary attracted a field of 115 golfers, winning various prizes in different categories together with side bets.
