The young girls take to the green at the Golf Park.
Naomi Wafula seems like your ordinary 13-year old. A Standard Seven pupil at Makini School, she enjoys swimming and athletics, and her favourite subject is Mathematics because “It’s fun to play with numbers.” But the shy girl is also one of Kenya’s top young golfers, with an astonishing handicap of just seven.
Naomi is the youngest golfer in the Kenya ladies golf team, and early this month returned from Zambia where she helped the country successfully defend the Gilberson and Page Trophy, which brought together top golfers from Zambia, Zimbabwe and Kenya. She and her partner, Florence Maina, made the most points in match play during the tournament.
