Failure to prepare as they say. My column in Tuesday's Connaught Telegraph. Our friends must realise that Covid was the wake up call for all small business’s and waiting around presuming that customer loyalty will always guarantee continued sales is no longer a viable option.

"Ronnie Delaney is 68 not out." My golf column in the Connaught Telegraph this week. The stature of a sporting performance is in its uniqueness and Ireland’s first gold medal in the modern era establishes this Olympic goal as one of the greatest we will ever witness.

Anyone interested in Irish golf?

Ireland has more to offer the golfer other than the aforementioned (one of which I'm proud to say gainfully employed me as Golf Operations manager for a period of time.) There are a number of sleeping giants where the visitor will leave with a unique golfing memory only found in the Emerald Isle.

Preparing for a team building exercise with a group booked in for the pitch & putt here at Westport Golf Club. We are happy to offer a registration desk for our guests once they arrive in the Clubhouse. Our 9 hole family friendly course is a wonderful success and an important revenue stream in 2025.

The new association of PING with Westport Golf Club goes from strength to strength. In the blink of an eye, we find ourselves at the final qualifying round of the year on this crisp Autumnal morning. All roads will be leading to Westport on the shores of Clew Bay "where the back 9 is a page turner."

Miss, miss may we play golf? My column in the Connaught Telegraph - "I was a little surprised not to hear from any representatives of the PGA or the teacher unions in the press release, as from experience both groups would have to be cornerstones of any school golf coaching program."

News that the American team may look for a $400,000 payment to play is a bad day for golf. From Seve’s inaugural win at Augusta to Christy Jnr’s 2 iron at the Belfry and all the Irish Major victories; if the Ryder Cup pay for play is confirmed, I for one won’t be following golf to the dark side.
