MTN Uganda successfully concluded the 2025 MTN Monthly Tee season with the MTN Grand Tee of Tees held at Entebbe Club, East Africa’s oldest golf facility. The season finale brought together 209 golfers for a competitive and celebratory day of play, confirming the tournament winners and crowning the most consistent performers across the year.
The Grand Tee of Tees served as the culmination of a yearlong series that has continued to grow in participation and competitiveness. On the day, Barbara Kiwanuka emerged as the overall winner after posting an impressive 64 net score, while category winners across the men’s, ladies’, seniors, and guest divisions reflected the depth of talent present at the club. The event also confirmed the 2025 MTN Monthly Tee Order of Merit champions, with Esther Aganyira taking the ladies overall title and Saidi Kirabira finishing as the men’s overall winner following consistent performances across their best eight rounds of the season.
Beyond the competition on the course, the Grand Tee of Tees rounded off a significant year for MTN Uganda’s partnership with Entebbe Club. Earlier in the week, MTN Uganda officially opened the refurbished Entebbe Clubhouse, a project delivered as part of the commitments made when the partnership was signed in 2023. Together with the MTN Halfway House unveiled in December 2024, these milestones have reinforced MTN’s role in enhancing the golfing experience and preserving the club’s heritage.
MTN Uganda’s support for golf in 2025 extended beyond Entebbe Club and the MTN Monthly Tee series. During the year, the company announced sponsorship support for professional golfer Ronald Rugumayo, contributing to his participation on international tours and supporting a landmark period for Ugandan golf on the global stage. This backing aligns with MTN Uganda’s broader commitment to nurturing talent, opening pathways, and supporting excellence within the sport.
As the curtain falls on the 2025 MTN Monthly Tee calendar, MTN Uganda remains committed to strengthening its partnership with Entebbe Club and continuing to support the growth of golf in Uganda through meaningful and sustained investment.
