Nigeria’s current number one player, Francis Epe, shot a brilliant twelve under par, 60 to set the course record at the opening tournament of the Acropolis Gardens and Residence Golf Course, Okija, in Anambra State over the weekend.
The event, graced by invited top professionals and amateurs across the country, had 86 golfers vying for honours at the 42 Hectare nine-hole facility.
Epe said, “The course is well laid out and played to my strength. I just told myself that I would avoid all the sand traps and water hazards, and I also chipped in twice in the round. In all, I had 12 birdies and six pars. It was a bogey-free round.”
