Portumna has firmly established itself as a must play on the Irish Golfer Events circuit, and from course condition to playability and club friendliness, the participants today were given an absolute treat! Not only did they get another glorious sunny day but lush fairways and some of the best greens we’ve seen this year added to the overall enjoyment of the day.
Competitors travelled from all corners of the country and the feedback was that they’ll definitely be making a return trip.
