The third edition of the South Africa Cup, an 18-hole golf tournament, is set to take place on May 4 at the golf section of Ikoyi Club 1938 in Lagos.
The one-day event forms part of activities marking South Africa’s 31st anniversary of democratic rule and aims to strengthen ties between Nigeria and South Africa through sport.
The tournament will bring together amateur golfers from both the Nigerian and South African business communities, including leading business executives and notable community figures. Over its previous two editions, the South Africa Cup has gained recognition for fostering bilateral partnerships and promoting economic collaboration, while celebrating South Africa’s democratic journey.
Speaking ahead of the tournament, Bobby Moore, South Africa’s Consul General in Lagos, emphasized the broader significance of the event beyond the golf course.

He also commended Crossflex Nigeria Limited for their role in elevating the tournament into a premier platform for unity and cooperation.
