Nkya wins Lina tour, four straight reign

Fadhil Nkya grabbed his fourth straight win at the Lina PG Tour Pro-Am event after finishing the 72-hole competition in Morogoro with a plus-16 total. The Dar es Salaam Gymkhana Club player beat clubmate Rajab Iddy by three strokes and has already banked 27.2 million shillings this season, which is apparently the biggest payday any Tanzanian pro has ever pulled in a single year. The series honors his late mom, who used to compete nationally and worked with the Tanzania Ladies Golf Union.

Isihaka Daudi from TPDF Lugalo Golf Club won the elite amateur division despite struggling through his final round, and his earlier performances kept him one stroke under par overall. Hawa Wanyeche made some noise by becoming the first woman amateur to crack the top prize spots, and her brother Enosh finished second among amateurs.

The final leg got pushed back indefinitely after being scheduled for Kili Golf Club in Arusha, so Nkya's chase for a fifth consecutive title is on hold for now.
