More about the Pro-Am

The Pro-Am will be held in July and it focuses on charities working in Mid-Western Ireland. Like most events, the focus is to raise money and try to give back in an entertaining way. “It’s incredible to see how many players from across the world are coming to play in the Pro-Am,” said host JP McManus, thanking everyone involved.
