The European Tour now moves back to Africa for the Magical Kenya Open and will be played at the Muthaiga Golf Club, which has been in existence since the early 1920’s.
In 1967 the club hosted its first major golf tournament which is now known as the Magical Kenya Open. Among the many notable names that have played in the event include Bobby Locke, Bob Charles, Billy Casper, Ian Woosman, Vijay Singh, Sam Torrance, Sandy Lyle, Seve Ballesteros and Sir Nick Faldo.
The course is located on the edge of the Karura forest in the suburb of Muthaiga, to the north of Nairobi. The front nine holes are laid out across undulating terrain on the other side of Kambu Road, with the back nine routed around several man-made lakes.
