King lauds golf tourney

By Neo Kolane

The Nedbank Mohokare Golf Classic 2022 edition ended on a high note this past Saturday with King Letsie III giving the tournament a stamp of approval.

During a prize giving ceremony in Maseru, King Letsie hailed the optimism brought about by the event and enthused that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

“Through your participation, we are encouraged because we see that we are edging assemblies that we enjoyed before the Covid-19 pandemic interrupted us.

“Your presence here today is an indication and encouragement that life will get better. And of course, I would like to congratulate all those who participated and the winners who were awarded prices because they are better than others.

“My biggest congratulation goes to the tournament and I wish them all the best and I hope they will return again next year to contest in the very treasured tournament,” the King said.

The Classic dubbed ‘Lesotho’s Major’ remains a wonderful platform for sportsmanship, friendship and business networking for participants, sponsors and supporters alike.

The Golf Classic is a key attraction for sports tourism and hospitality in the country, as it has always hosted players and visitors alike locally and from the nearby SADC countries, including South Africa, Botswana and Eswatini.
