Experienced golfer Emos Koblah displayed tenacity and accuracy in his play to retain his enviable title in the seniors category of the 2025 Damang Open Tournament on Thursday.
The veteran golfer, popularly called ‘Godfather’, exhibited his swinging and chipping skills on the greens across the hazards and dense trees, bunkers, and bridges to beat his opponents by amassing 219 from Tuesday to Thursday to win the exciting competition.
On day one, he got 73, 71 on day two, and 75 on day three to defeat a field of 13 other good golfers.
He was followed by E. K. Owusu, who got 227 from 77 on the first day, 61 on the second day, and 89 on the third day. Anthony Gbenyo, the second runner-up in the category, got a total of 228, representing 74 on his first day, 78 on the second day, and 76 on his third day.
After the game, Emos Koblah told journalists that the nature of the course made play tricky and difficult, but he used his rich experience to beat the field to become senior champion at Damang again.
“This Damanging course is very tricky as the grass can stop the ball or make it go further than you wanted.
He hailed the young men who are now playing in the seniors division for giving him some challenging moments, and Goldfields Damang for bringing back the PGA Open.
