The annual Bank Windhoek Independence Golf Cup, in celebration of Namibia's Independence Day, took place at the Windhoek Country Club and Golf Estate on Saturday, 25 March.

The tournament, which was in the better-ball Stableford format, was won by Bertus Damon and George Gariseb (44 points). The pair walked away with a floating trophy and several prizes.

Mark Raidza and Toady Gurirab were in second place with 43 points, with George Martin and Chris van Lill third place with 41 points.

A total of 56 players took part in this year's Bank Windhoek Independence Cup.

Speaking at the prize-giving ceremony, Riaan van Rooyen, head of corporate affairs, strategy and sustainability at Bank Windhoek, said the bank was proud of hosting the event.

“As a 100% Namibian bank, it makes sense to be part of Namibia's Independence celebrations.

“We all owe a debt to our Namibian government for working hard to ensure peace and stability.

“This ensures that as Namibians, we can live peaceful lives, where we can enjoy each other and practise the sport that we love,” Van Rooyen said.
