Despite a devastating fire that damaged a section of the Sigona Golf Clubhouse, Mwangi Kimemia achieved an impressive score of 36 stableford points to claim the Mug of Mugs title over the weekend.
The cause of the fire, which consumed the James Gichuru lounge on the first floor of the 18-hole course established in 1938 as a 9-hole layout, is still under investigation.
