Links golf in Ireland

April 21st, 2009 Barry O'Gorman No comments

Great piece about Links Golf in Ireland in today’s Irish Times by Philip Reid.  Great to see role being played by John O’Connor – my fellow member of St. Anne’s Golf Club - a links on the Bull Island, 4 miles north of the city centre.  Would also like to congratulate John on all the work done on the Portmarnock Links – always a great thrill to play there.

Links golf is a treasure we have in Ireland – to be enjoyed by the lucky members, all the very welcome visitors and future generations.  Great to see people taking the long term view and investing in the future of links golf.

Onward and upward.  Ad astra.

Easing back into the golf.  Beautiful sunny morning on the Bull Island - playing St. Anne’s.  18 holes, great company and an unhealthybreakfast – great way to finish one week and start the next!

the long evenings on the Bull Island

How great it is to tee off at 6pm and be able to play until 9.50pm!  Played a great fourball match – sporting concessions, good competition, unfortunately beaten at the 18th.

And if we can play until nearly 10pm on the East Coast they must be playing up to 10.20 in Westport!
