A coastal club in Mombasa, with Indian Ocean air and a different Kenya than the capital's.
Nyali is Mombasa: humidity, palm, and the feeling that the ocean is participating even when you cannot see it from every hole. Kenyan golf is not only Nairobi clubs in the highlands. The coast has its own pace, its own heat, its own after-round conversation. A journey that includes both cities is a more honest picture of the country than either one alone.
JW’s personal notes from the round will live here — the funny moment, the people, the 19th hole — without inventing what hasn’t been written yet.
