Short History – Did you know that the Ladies Coast Open started in 1948?
It was initially held at Mombasa Club until 1966. In 1967, by mutual agreement, the Ladies Coast Open began alternating between Nyali Golf Club and Mombasa Club. From the year 2000, Leisure Lodge Golf Club joined the event with Vipingo Ridge following in 2013. We look forward to adding Malindi Golf Club to the circuit in 2022.
Ladies Coast Open is a unique, and major event on the golfing calendar in Kenya. This year saw the largest number of entries recorded since it’s birth.
