That’s just outstanding. 2 lads that have played together from schoolboys golf and what is brilliant imo none of them went to the States on scholarship programs although Rory I believe was close.
My question is to you TOT and the other golfers and it’s an honest question.
I went to college in the states and saw first hand how much money goes into the college ( university) game there.
My question is how much money in Ireland goes into like funding young players or even our colleges because we always seem to be able to produce talented players and even Leona had to go to the States.
Are we providing enough funding at home to promote and produce players at home.
Like in college in Ireland is there an actual competition or scholarships for golf etc.
I like the game just bad at playing it .
But we are hosting the Ryder cup in 2 plus years but do we actually put enough money into the youth development here?
Honest question?
