Milly Nambooze and Innocent Nahabwe will fly business class to destinations of their choice courtesy of Rwanda Air, after topping the ladies section organised flags golf tournament at Kitante on Saturday.
 
Flags, also commonly known as Last Man Standing or Tombstone - is a competition format in which golfers begin the round of golf with an allotment of strokes, then play the golf course until their strokes run out. The game gets its name from the fact that little flags are usually given to competitors to stick in the ground at the point from which their final shot is played.
 
Nambooze exhausted her strokes 30 yards off tee No.19 while Nahabwe stopped 26 feet to the 19th-hole (hole-No1).
