Rightly proud of our legacy as a leading tournament destination – having hosted the 2006 Ryder Cup among other championship tournaments – we are also looking forward to hosting the Irish Open in 2023, 2025 and 2027, as well as the Irish Challenge Tour in 2024 and 2026.In addition to our landmark courses, our pros over at K Golf World employ the most innovative simulation technologies to assist you in improving your game. While technical prowess will certainly improve after a session at K Golf World, an evening here is also a fantastic way to have fun, socialise and bond with friends or family over drinks and tasty bar bites.
