PHOTO STORY ON THE WINNER OF THE JUST CONCLUDED FEMALE GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP


Chichi Alamu for the thirteenth time won the ladies open championship organised by Ikeja Golf Club Lagos Nigeria and sponsored by Total Health Trust Limited. The three day tournament which started on the 28th of October 2010 and ended Today the 30th of October 2010 according to Chichi, was not challenging. With well over sixty female Golfers from all parts of the nation participating, none could actually give her a challenge. Here is the photo story of the event that Chichi believes has actually shown that when she retires from  active Golf no one can take her place. I was not at my best in this tournament yet I won. The female Golfers in Nigeria have serious work to do she said.Picture above shows Chichi Alamu on the first day she played.29th October 2010.
