Leburu wins Minet Golf Tournament

Leburu won himself Simmental bull zero tooth followed by Edwin Madigela in second position who walked away with a heifer zero tooth. Tinashe Chiwanga is a proud owner of a zero tooth ram after finishing in the third position and a meat master ewe went to Taboka Masalila for a position four finish. The bull was sponsored by Emeritus while the Heifer and Ram were sponsored by Sara Re and Grand Re respectively. The Ewe was sponsored by FMRE.

Speaking to SportMonitor, Leburu said although he is not a farmer, he knows a lot of farmers but he did not know what he was going to do with his prize. He said he will hopefully find some value somehow even if it means starting farming. “If it means I have to sell it to somebody who cares more about animals than me, so be it. I am proud, it was a good day for me. It does not come so often and I shoot Sub 90, maybe four times in a year. Today was my best score, a gross of 81 shots and 43 points 7 and under ever since I started playing golf. I am an amateur, far from being a Pro but I am doing good,” he said. Leburu said they played seven hours because the players start and stop, they wait for others but an ordinary 18 holes game should take four and half hours. He explained that he had to be patient, let everybody enjoy and it worked for him.
