Stephen Kiaro of Kiambu Golf Club and David Gitao of Vet Lab Golf Club have qualified for the Word International Pairs in Spain.
The two punched the tickets after winning the 2022 International pairs qualifier held at Vet Lab Sports Club this weekend.
The pair garnered 52 points, 26 points in the first nine and 26 points in the second nine to claim the win.
Kenya will join 38 other countries participating in the World Final which will be played at La cala Golf Resort in Spain from 14 to18 November 2022.
Since the event will be played in Ryder Cup format, the organizers have invited past winners of Ryder Cup some of whom include Manuel Pinero, Costantiono Rocca and Ronan Ratterly.
2021 Grand finale was not played due to the Covid 19 Travel restriction and therefore the qualifiers of last year will join this year’s winners.
The six from last year are Jay Varia and Gurtej Phull of Sigona Golf Club, Kush Aashit and Chand Shah of Sigona Golf Club and Julius Rono and Erick Mutai of Kericho Golf Club.
The event was introduced to Kenya in 2019 where Kenya finished fourth in the Grand Finale held in Portugal.
