All Eyes on Ireland this July!

In early July, there are two golf tournaments in Ireland that will see most of the world’s Top 50 golfers play in the Emerald Isle.

First up is the Irish Open at the beautiful Mount Juliet Estate where defending champion Lucas Herbert will tee it up alongside a host of Ryder Cup stars including: Shane Lowry, Padraig Harrington, Tyrrell Hatton, Thomas Pieters and Thorbjørn Olesen

The world famous Jack Nicklaus signature design golf course is the jewel in the crown of the 5* Mount Juliet Estate. The Manor House at Mount Juliet dates back to the 18th century but has the very finest contemporary comforts, state-of-the-art facilities and excellent dining experiences.

Hot on the heel of the Irish Open is the much anticipated JP McManus Pro-Am at the stunning Adare Manor. The entry list reads like a who’s who of golf. The world’s top 5 ranked players – Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Collin Morikawa and Justin Thomas – headline the list of major champions and global golf superstars in the field. A certain Mr. T. Woods is also still listed to play at time of writing!

Since a complete refurbishment in 2017, the luxurious 5* Adare Manor resort has won award after award for the outstanding offering at the 19th century castle estate. Boasting exceptional food and beverage, Spa and a world class Padel facility, it’s easy to understand why Adare Manor is chosen as the host for the centenary Ryder Cup in 2027.

Check out the video below to get a taste of what is on offer at Mount Juliet and Adare Manor. It’s no wonder the world’s top golfers are stopping for golf in Ireland on route to the 150th Open at St. Andrews!

REMINDER – 2023 time sheets are open. Please contact us without delay to book your golf experience of a lifetime.

Yours in Golf,

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Happy Saint Patrick’s day! 
Saint Patrick’s day is upon us, the day where the whole world goes green and everyone is a little bit Irish! It makes us proud to see so many iconic buildings light up in green all around the world in celebration of Ireland’s national holiday on March 17.

And, of course, this year is the first year in 3 where Saint Patrick’s day events can happen in person, so, we should really embrace the opportunity to celebrate our Irishness with music, dance, culture and the subject dearest to our hearts – GOLF!

There are so many world famous venues and hidden gems to discover in Ireland – more than 400 golf courses, 1/3 of the true links courses in the world and 11 golf courses in the current Golf Digest World Top 100! And, there’s our legendary 19th hole hospitality and stunning landscape with 40 shades of green.

Happy Christmas!

Happy Christmas!

We visited the new K World experience at the K Club last week. The 2006 Ryder Cup venue has added an indoor state of the art golf simulator experience to the 5 star K Club resort.

We played the front 9 of 2021 Ryder Cup venue, Whistling Straits, indoors at K World, and then went outside to play 9 holes in “real life” on the Palmer North course at the K Club. Not a bad Christmas party if you’re a golfer! BIG thank you to Conor Russell, Director of Golf at the K Club and Gary Murphy, Head Golf Professional, for the welcome. Check out the video below to see the impressive set up at K World.

We wish you and yours a peaceful, joyous festive season and a prosperous 2022. All going well, we look forward to seeing you on our world famous greens and fairways next year.

Yours in golf,

Welcoming Golfers Back

Our own legends Frank and Mark Gannon joined lifelong friends, Ryder Cup winner, Des Smyth, and fellow Irish international, Barry Reddan, for a really enjoyable 4ball at our home course, County Louth Golf Club.
Mark talks about his personal experience of having covid but remains optimistic about the year ahead and 2022. It was only right that Des take that putt at the end of the video!

Vax and Golf!

It is great to be able to report some positive news from Ireland. Golf courses are now open for 4ball play, the vaccination programme is going well and is gathering pace.

In the video below shot last week, G Golf co-founders Mark and Frank Gannon, joined lifelong friends, Ryder Cup winner, Des Smyth, and fellow Irish international, Barry Reddan, for a “friendly” 4ball at their home course, Co. Louth (Baltray).

Mark talks about his personal experience of having covid while Frank is optimistic about the year ahead and 2022. But, can you believe they made Des take that putt at the end of the video!

We hope you and yours are well. When the time is right, be sure to contact us to start planning your next golf vacation.
