Khan, Blue excel at Romel & Robin 9-hole Golf Extravaganza
Veteran player Kassim Khan and rookie player Eion Blue each put up a splendid performance at the Romel & Robin 9-hole golf tourney on Sunday last at the Lusignan Golf Club.
The competition, part of a BBQ and Fun Day activity, was played in 2 flights of handicaps, namely the 0-7 and 8-14. The tournament was as exciting as promised, and the participants enjoyed great camaraderie while yet being keen on the competitiveness, as they strove to be in the winners’ row.
