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!

Irish Legends Tour at Seapoint

22nd – 25th June 2023, Seapoint, Co. Louth

Sometimes it is difficult to put into words just how incredibly special something is.

They say a picture paints a thousand words but in this case a video illustrates the scene. Have a look at the highlights reel below from the inaugural Irish Legends event at Rosapenna Golf Resort, Co. Donegal and see for yourself.

G Golf Ireland – Highlights of the Legends Tour at Rosapenna, hosted by Paul McGinley

You do not want to miss this year’s event which is being held at the iconic Seapoint Golf Links. The opportunity to play alongside Ryder Cup Legends and celebrities from the worlds of entertainment and sport speaks for itself. And then there is amazing food, singsongs with superstars and of course, the craic!

Welshman, Phillip Price was victorious in tough links conditions back in 2022, posting Level Par (213) to claim the title by 1-shot from a host of players such as Jarmo Sandelin, Paul Eales, Peter Baker, Emauele Canonica & Steen Tinning.

Seapoint may be a relatively young links course, though the golfer experience gives testament to the quality of challenge presented by its designers. Since its doors opened in 1995, the course has hosted a European Tour matchplay event, two Irish PGAs and the country’s leading Amateur event, the Irish Amateur Close Championship.
