Dulux Paint Wins 2022 World Corporate Golf Challenge Nigeria Finals

The national finals of the famed World Corporate Golf Challenge (WCGC) came to a thrilling end at the Lakowe Lakes Golf and Country Estate in Lagos on Sunday with team Dulux Paint emerging the overall winner.

Represented by Peter Eben-Spiff and Vitus Ezenwa, the duo grossed a total of 45 stable-ford points to win the competition by 1 point over the hard-fighting team of Eko Support 1, represented by Okey Ananaba and Remi Edu at 44 points.

The pair of Mohammed Suleiman and Jumai Abdulahi representing NCDMB-3 from IBB International Golf and Country Club, Abuja came third with a score of 41 stable-ford points, beating Chidi Momah and Julius Fadairo who represented Julius Fadairo and Co. on countback.

Completing the top five winners in the keenly contested encounter is the team of Oregon & Omars represented by Abiye Amakri and Peter Omoruaye.

Though the players were originally expected to be scored over 36-holes, the weather disrupted the opening round thereby forcing the organisers to score participants over the closing 18-holes.
