Uganda recorded a single win with Reagan Akena and Peter Mayende’s impressive 4&3 victory over Daniel Kiragu and Isaac Makokha.
The two stalemates were recorded in the foursomes; Abdallah Kakooza with Bwambale against Yuvraj Rajput and Tsevi Soni as well as another in the four ball better ball when Akena and Ssekibejja held Elvis Muigua and Kevin Anyien.
It is a moving day on Friday, 6th March 2026 with the foursomes’ action in the morning before the afternoon session for the four ball better ball.
