Royal Dublin
As Ireland’s third-oldest golf club, you’ll experience plenty of history when you visit Royal Dublin. But don’t mistake older for not challenging, as this championship venue will test even the best of golfers. Located in the bustling hub of Dublin (an easy flight into this spectacular city!), this is a perfect stop on your golf tour of Eastern Ireland!
A rivalry you benefit from
Like Portmarnock, Royal Dublin will long be associated with the Halycon Days of Irish golf, when names such as Seve Ballesteros, Bernhard Langer, Sandy Lyle, Ian Woosnam and Nick Faldo battled for success around these iconic courses. There is a huge rivalry between both clubs and both have hosted numerous professional and amateur championships. Christy O’Connor Sr., “The Greatman” himself was the club’s professional for 57 years.
