Professional Golf in Kenya is growing. The Kenya Open Golf Championship is now a fully fledged member of the European Tour with a prize kitty of 1.2 million euros (Sh139.2 million) and the Karen Masters is a full member of the Sunshine Tour and with a prize kitty of two million rands (Sh15 million).

There is also talk of another Sunshine Tour event in Kenya, perhaps at the Coast, and the Kenya Open Golf Ltd recently launched the Safari Tour in August 2018 with a total prize fund of Sh12 million through seven events in the first season.
