NAMIBIA BEATS NAMAQUALAND
As is customary, the Championship was preceded by the Vivo Energy Challenge between Namibia and Namaqualand on Friday.
The format was foursomes in the morning, followed by eight singles matches in the afternoon.
An incentive of N$6 000 to break the course record (65) was on offer, but no one came close. The wind started and the course became tough and many balls were lost in the thick bushes.
Namibia won the foursomes by 3.5 points to Namaqualand's 0.5.
In the individual contest, the two teams drew at four points each.
Namibia won the Vivo Energy Namibia Challenge by 7.5 to 4.5.
