Jodi Munn-Barrow, the first woman to become president of Jamaica Golf Association (JGA), was returned unopposed for her second-consecutive term of office.

Munn-Barrow had no challenger for the top position of the JGA when the organisation hosted its election recently at the Constant Golf Club in St Andrew.

“It’s a true honour to be elected as president of the Jamaica Golf Association. I look forward to working with the members of the new executive committee. The first matter of importance that we will be looking at is the hosting of the Caribbean Amateur Junior Championships in July and then we continue to focus on our Jamaica Open. But [I am] grateful to have a good committee and grateful to lead this august body” said a pleased Munn-Barrow.

She was nominated by Immediate Past President Peter Chin, who is an avid golfer and chairs the Jamaica Open Golf Championship committee.

Vice-President Dr Mark Newnham returned unopposed as well after being nominated by Robert Chin.

The other elected members of the committee are William Brown (treasurer), Fred Sutherland (honorary secretary), Alison Reid (junior golf chairperson), Rowena Coe (ladies’ representative), along with committee members Dave Lyn, Vikram Dhiman, Robert Chin, Teddy Alexander and Dave Cameron.

Alexander and Cameron, the former Cricket West Indies president, are serving on the JGA executive for the first time.
