Kenya Breweries Limited through Johnnie Walker yesterday announced a payment of Sh3.2 million as sponsorship and prize award to Muthaiga Golf Club’s pro golfer Greg Snow and Mumias-based long-hitter Dismas Indiza.

The award is part of a sponsorship deal that the Johnnie Walker brand entered into with the two pro golfers last year, where the players would represent the Johnnie Walker range of brands at both the Safari Tour Golf Series and the Magical Kenya Open Golf Championship.

Both players were signed-up as Johnnie Walker golf brand ambassadors for Sh1 million each over the duration of a year; with Johnnie Walker further committing to award them performance-based cash prizes at the 2019/2020 Safari Tour Golf Series.

“We are delighted to be associated with both Greg Snow and Dismas Indiza. Their continued professionalism and excellence on the course speak to their continued determination to be the best they can be; and this fits perfectly within our brand ethos and objectives,” he said.

“Our association with the two golfers was as a result of their consistency and dedication to the sport; and, for us, it was a no-brainer that we wanted to support them as they prepare for the Magical Kenya Open Golf Championship through the Safari Tour Golf Series,” he added.
