Nyali’s resident professional Kopan Timbe has tipped this year’s Kenya Amateur Matchplay champion Tony Omuli to shine in future, but also challenged the current amateurs to strive and break his seven-year old Golfer Of The Year record.

Omuli beat Limuru’s P. Muchangi 4/3 in the finals of the Matchplay played more than a week ago at the par 72 Windsor Golf and Country Club and in the process picked 16 massive points that saw him leap from position nine to fourth in the latest GOTY standings.

“Omuli was my caddy when I won the golfer of the year in 2004/2005 and he used to give me great tips on the course. It is wonderful to see him winning major events nowadays and I tip him for greatness in future,” said Timbe.

Timbe who also set a national record the same year when he amassed a total of 130 points on the Goty series, also challenged the current players to strive and improve on his record.

“In the season 2004/2005 I won 11 out of the 17 legs of the Goty series and in the process managed to pick a record 130 points in total. I believe the current crop of amateur players are capable of matching the feat and they should go for it,” Timbe told Kenya Golf Guide. zapatillas air max zapatillas air max
