The prestigious annual competition will once again return to the world-class greens of the Smokin Hills Golf Resort in Ilara-Mokin, Ondo State, promising an elevated experience for both players and spectators.

Organised consistently by Toyota (Nigeria) Limited, the tournament honours the memory and enduring legacy of the late Chief (Mrs.) Elizabeth Wuraola Ojo, a matriarch celebrated for her remarkable virtues, integrity, and dedication to inspiring excellence—particularly among women in sports.

“The Elizabeth Wuraola Ojo Toyota Golf Tournament is more than a sporting event — it is a celebration of legacy, integrity, and enduring values,” Ade-Ojo said. “This year’s edition promises an unforgettable experience for all participants and guests.”

Adding to the excitement, a grand prize of ₦10 million has been earmarked for any golfer who achieves a legendary hole-in-one, underscoring Toyota’s commitment to raising the stakes and rewarding athletic brilliance.

The tournament will feature a shotgun start format, ensuring a dynamic, synchronised kickoff as golfers tee off simultaneously across designated holes.

Saturday, November 14 (7:00 a.m.): Amateur male and female golfers will take to the greens to showcase their talents.

Gala Night & Prize Presentation (Saturday Evening): The competition will culminate in a glamorous awards dinner celebrating the tournament winners and distinguished guests.

A key highlight of the closing gala will be the presentation of the “Amiable Woman of the Tournament” award. Instituted specifically in memory of Chief (Mrs.) Elizabeth Wuraola Ojo, the accolade recognises outstanding sportsmanship and aims to drive greater female participation in the sport.

“This award is symbolic of the values she stood for and serves to encourage more women to participate in and contribute to the game of golf,” Ade-Ojo noted, assuring attendees of an impressive package of rewards and activities throughout the weekend.

In addition to the action on the fairway, Toyota (Nigeria) Limited will showcase a fleet of its latest vehicle models at the resort, offering attendees an exclusive, up-close look at the brand’s cutting-edge technology, craftsmanship, and innovation.
