Tuvawish

Emerging golf star, ‎Junior Tuvawish, was on top of the world at the Kano Golf Club 1908 when he beat the field to emerge the junior champion at the Win Win Golf Tournament.
‎ ‎
To win the one-day event, Tuvawish, 15, finished 65 net to beat his closest rival Ayomide Miracle Abiodun, who finished 67 net.

Elated by his success, the Lebanon School, Kano SS 2 student talked about taking his game to a higher level at the nearest futre.

Tuvawish, who said he would not allow his education to suffer for any reason, said: “My dream is to become one of the world’s best golfers in the future; but I’ll still continue with my education, because education is a very important development in one’s life.

“I want to thank the organisers for creating this opportunity for the junior players to express themselves. I also hope to maintain this performance and do better in other tournaments.”

As part of the activities leading to the tournament, a golf clinic was also organised during the event to teach the kids some etiquettes of the game. This was against the backdrop of what the organisers termed golf as a “game of life” for physical and mental upbringing where discipline and honesty are not compromised.

‎Earlier, an official of the PGA of Nigeria (PGAN), Aminu Baba, who commended the children’s response to the event, said, “I want to first commend the sponsors of this tournament, which is aimed at discovering talents from the grassroots – it’s good to “catch them young,” monitor their progress for the future to make the game better for the players and country, hence I’m very glad the kids are responding and performing up to expectations.”
