For the second consecutive year, OFX are the Title Sponsor of the upcoming Irish Legends at Mount Juliet having come on board for the 2024 event which was held at Seapoint Golf Links.
The 2025 event will take place from 15–17 May and promises to be a great occasion as the legends of the game vie to claim Adilson Da Silva’s 2024 crown.
Last year’s event featured legendary golfers Ángel Cabrera, Peter Baker, and Ian Woosnam, and this year promises to be just as exciting. The field will once again include major champions, former Ryder Cup players, and past champions from both the PGA Tour and DP World Tour.
Commenting on the announcement, Maeve McMahon, President EMEA of OFX, said:
“We’re delighted to continue as the title sponsor of the OFX Irish Legends for a second year. At OFX, we specialise in helping businesses manage their global money transfers with confidence, and this partnership reflects our commitment to supporting excellence—whether in international business or on the golf course. We look forward to another incredible year celebrating and engaging with players and fans alike.”
The event will kick off on Wednesday with a celebrity pro-am, where stars including Robbie Fowler, Teddy Sheringham, and more icons yet to be revealed will have the chance to showcase their golfing talents.
The championship course at Mount Juliet Estate, designed by Jack Nicklaus, stretches up to 7,200 yards across 180 acres of land. The course provides players with plenty of challenges to navigate, with five lakes coming into play on six holes and 80 bunkers strategically placed around the layout. Mount Juliet Estate is situated just outside the vibrant town of Kilkenny and will be an excellent venue for the event. It promises a great day out for all the family, where you can watch the legends of the game compete for the title.
Mr Matt Sandercock (PGA Fellow), Director of Golf at Mount Juliet Estate, said: “Mount Juliet Estate is a proven tournament host venue, having staged five Irish Opens, two World Golf Championships, and a Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf in its earlier days. We are absolutely delighted to be hosting our first Legends Tour event in May. The team and I are really looking forward to welcoming legends of the game and past heroes to our Jack Nicklaus Signature Design Course, which will prove an enjoyable and challenging test for all—particularly for those making their first visit. We’re thrilled to have OFX as the title sponsor, and their partnership will undoubtedly play a key role in ensuring the success of this event.”
