This month, Mauritian golf experienced one of the most memorable weeks in its sporting history. Between May 31 and June 6, 2026, the island not only hosted three international competitions simultaneously but also won two of them, marking an unprecedented achievement on the regional stage. <\/b><\/p>\n

It all began at the Tamarina Golf Club, where the 2026 Inter-Island Team Championship was being held against teams from R\u00e9union and the Seychelles. Buoyed by a strong team performance across the Professional\/Amateur, Senior, and Women\u2019s divisions, the Mauritian team\u2014featuring Vishnoo Seeneevassen, Alban de Chalain, and Elise Tsang Man Kin, among others\u2014clinched the title in style. <\/p>\n

A few days later, from June 4 to 6, Mauritius faced five nations at the 2026 Africa Region IV Men\u2019s Team Championship: Kenya, Seychelles, R\u00e9union, Tanzania, and Burundi. After three days of high-level competition, the Mauritian quartet\u2014composed of Ludovic Bax, Rakesh Channoo, Tanishq Nobeen, and Alban de Chalain\u2014emerged victorious with a score of +1, relegating Kenya to second place (+32). A historic first regional title for the island! On the individual front, while the gold went to Seychellois player Adrian Andrade, Mauritius placed two players on the podium: Ludovic Bax (2nd) and Tanishq Nobeen (3rd). <\/p>\n

These successes also highlight the Mauritius Golf Federation\u2019s development strategy. The performances of Tanishq Nobeen, Gabriel Le Court, and Elise Tsang Man Kin\u2014all members of Team MCB Junior Golf\u2014confirm that investing in youth development is paying off. \u201cThese victories are the result of several years of hard work, patience, and perseverance,\u201d emphasizes Shashi Goburdhone, Manager of the MGF, who has already announced the upcoming launch of the NextGen program to further strengthen the pool of Mauritian talent. <\/p>\n

Alongside these two tournaments, Mauritius also hosted the 2026 Constance Mauritius Ladies Open, in collaboration with the Ladies Golf Union Mauritius. It was a week that definitively cemented the island\u2019s status as the region\u2019s premier golf destination! <\/p>\n
