Kenya defeat Uganda in I&M Bank Katogo Golf Series Migingo Skirmishes

Kenya’s Limuru Country Club defeated Uganda 36-12 to win the second edition of the I&M Bank Katogo Golf Series Migingo Skirmishes held at Limuru Country Club on Saturday, October 31, 2026.

A total of 252 golfers, evenly split between Uganda and Kenya, competed in the cross-border tournament played under the match play format, with each match win earning one point and a tie attracting half a point.

Daniel Kanyu and Renaldo D’Souza recorded the biggest winning margin, securing a 10/8 victory in the team competition.

In the individual categories, Victor Oduor won Men’s Group C with 44 points, while Andrew Koech took Men’s Group B with 43 points.

Former Uganda Golf Union president Moses Matisiko won Men’s Group A with 37 points, tying with runner-up Brian Sumbi.

Winnie won Ladies’ Group B with 39 points, while Elizabeth Gak claimed Ladies’ Group A with 39 points.

The tournament was the fourth cross-border event in the I&M Bank Katogo Golf Series and the second time Limuru Country Club had hosted it.

Uganda Golf Union president Dr Jackson Were, who participated in the event, praised the organisers and I&M Bank for promoting relationships between golfers across the region.

The tournament also marked a return to Limuru for several Ugandan golfers who participated in the inaugural edition in November 2024, just weeks before a fire destroyed the club’s clubhouse.

I&M Bank Group Regional CEO Kihara Maina proposed that organisers consider hosting the next edition at a neutral golf course to give both teams an equal advantage.

The event concluded with a 19th Hole celebration attended by golfers and guests from both countries.
