The Zambia Masters, currently known for sponsorship reasons as the Zanaco Masters, is a golf tournament on the Sunshine Tour. It was first played in June 2014 as the Zambia Sugar Open.[1] A tournament called the Zambia Sugar Open was played in 2013 but was a different event, the Zambia Open.
No tournaments took place in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] The 2021 tournament was again removed from the Sunshine Tour schedule and was played as a local event for Zambian professionals.[3]
The event returned in 2023 after a three-year hiatus from the Sunshine Tour schedule.[4]
