She said the golfers are now in intensive training ahead of the strokes play competition.<\/p>\n<p>She said they are determined to make their participation felt in the three-day tournament that will also bring together top ladies from outside the African continent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is going to be a tough event because it will draw competitors from Africa and outside the continent, but we are confident that our golfers will win us plaudits,\u201d said Madina.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, Angel Eaton won the IBB Ladies Open tournament after carding 237 gross. She also won the longest drive honour in the event that featured 200 golfers from Africa and Sweden.<\/p>\n<p>Also the list of winners includes Hawa Wanyeche, who finished fourth and Ayne Magombe, who is also the Lugalo Club\u2019s golfer, finished sixth. Other golfers who featured in the event were Tayana William, Sophia Mathias, Sara Dennis and Rehema Athumani.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to show our prowess in this event once again. We won the previous edition, but we have to strive to win back-to-back titles even though we understand that it will be tough,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
