At just 14 years old, Munesu Chimhini has rapidly become one of Zimbabwe’s most exciting young golfers, and if 2025 continues on its current trajectory, this may be the year he makes his permanent mark on the national and international stages.

His recent performances, include a stellar fourth-place finish at the Roland Park Open last week but it was his victory at the Chapman Golf Club Championships in June this year that have left golf enthusiasts and pundits alike buzzing with anticipation.

Chimhini’s impressive win at the Chapman Golf Club Championships, where he triumphed by a staggering nine strokes with a gross score of 155, showcased his dominance and composure in a competitive field.

N Zidya, who finished second, had to settle for a distant 164.

For a teenager, such performances are not only rare but a clear indication that the future is looking incredibly bright. “It’s his dedication that sets him apart,” said one golf observer. “To see a 14-year-old with such a strong mental game and work ethic is extraordinary.

Munesu practices 2 to 3 hours, 5 days a week.

That level of commitment, especially in a sport like golf, is what will take him far. ”
Chimhini’s work ethic, combined with his natural talent, is a recipe for success.

In 2024, the young golfer secured multiple high-profile victories, further solidifying his status as one of the top prodigies in the sport.

He won the African Junior Challenge, the USKids SA Big 5 Open in South Africa, and came in 4th at the Daily Mail World Junior Golf Championship in Spain, all impressive achievements for someone still in their early teens.

At just 12, Chimhini had already claimed the 2023 NCBA USKids Invitational in Kenya, proving his international credentials at an age when many are still learning the basics. 🔗
