Deep Shah emerged victorious in the Heineken Festival of Golf series at the Vet Lab Sports Club course, claiming the overall title.
Shah's impressive performance was marked by a birdie at the 12th hole and two consecutive pars at the last two holes, earning him 39 points and a narrow one-point lead over men's winner Vincent Landa.
However, the second and third prizes were decided on count-back between John Kamuyu and Eddy Mogoa, who both posted 37 points, the same as lady winner Wambui Okello, who beat veteran Mary Karano by five points.
Thika Sports Club's Anthony Mwaura, playing off a handicap of four, carded a two-over-par 38 points, including a bogey-free back nine score of one under par 20 points, to claim the guest prize ahead of Limuru's N. Ngari on 37 points.
Other notable winners included Dennis Maara, who won the men's longest drive, and Margaret Nyakang'o, who won the ladies' prize. Moses Njenga and Hellen Manyara won the nearest to pin prize.
