Aaron Cockerill and the European Tour are at the Magical Kenya Open....Full tee times/leaderboard

Magical  Kenya OpeTee Times

 One of the reasons I admire the European Tour and it's players/caddies has always been the travel that they undertake every year, 26 different countries, especially the hassle they endure at airports and border crossings this past COVID year, keeping all their medical paperwork, visa's, passports in order has been a major issue that can leave them stranded, even in custody, something players on the PGA Tour have no issue with.

After their desert swing, last week in a Muslim country, Qatar, they are off for two weeks in Africa, this week it's the Magical Kenya Open with Johnny Walker whiskey as the main sponsor. 

Aaron Cockerill the lone Canadian, from Manitoba, where he was ice fishing a few weeks ago, missed the cut last week so he's had some time to prepare at the Karen CC in Nairobi ,playing on Thursday at 2.10pm local time off the first tee. 

The course has the reputation of being narrow and tight, with small sloping greens surrounded by thick vegetation.
