Oliver delivers victory at Bruster’s golf tournament; focus switches to Guyana Open

The Lusignan Golf Club came alive on Sunday as 36 golfers battled it out under clear skies for top honours at the Bruster’s Real Ice Cream Golf Tournament 2025.

The course was in splendid shape, lush fairways, smooth greens, and a gentle breeze that tested every shot, setting the perfect tone for a day of spirited competition.

Emerging triumphant was Kassam Oliver, who carded a gross score of 85 with a 22 handicap, finishing on a net score of 63. His steady play throughout the round secured him first place in a strong field.

Anthony Scares followed closely with 86 gross, 23 handicap, and 63 net, losing narrowly on countback, while Roy Dhori finished third with 83 gross, 18 handicap, and 65 net.

In the special categories, Miguel Yunis unleashed a powerful drive to capture the Longest Drive award, while Mike Mangal displayed pinpoint accuracy to win Nearest to the Pin.

The Best Gross title went to Feroze Barkat 76, who delivered consistent form throughout the day.

The tournament, now an annual favorite, once again showcased the strong partnership between Bruster’s Real Ice Cream and the Lusignan Golf Club.

The course buzzed with camaraderie and anticipation as players gathered at the 19th hole to discuss their rounds and look ahead to the next big challenge, the Brava Guyana Open, scheduled for November 1-2, 2025.

LGC Secretary Chet Bowling extended gratitude to the sponsors, saying, “A big thank you to Bruster’s. The Bruster’s brand has been a great supporter of the Lusignan Golf Club over the past six years. Led by Director Paton George, the company clearly understands its corporate social responsibility.

“What’s also important is the number of players the tournament attracted, 36. This was a very high turnout and is reflective of the sponsor, but also a buildup to the Brava Guyana Open. You could feel the air pulsating at the 19th hole as players shared their anticipation for the major tournament.”

With the Brava Guyana Open just days away, Oliver’s win adds a thrilling chapter to the club’s competitive season and signals an exciting showdown ahead for Guyana’s premier golf event.
