JP to give golf wives €2,000 vouchers

IT always generates millions for local charities and tourism but this year’s JP McManus Pro-Am Golf Classic at Adare Manor Hotel is also likely to give fashion houses in the area a much welcome boost.

It has been suggested that partners of the golfing stars who will travel to Adare this July will each receive a €2,000 voucher to spend in the local area.

Among the glamorous golfing wives expected in Adare on July 4 and 5 will be Caroline Harrington, wife of Padraig Harrington, Liezl Els, wife of Ernie Els and Monserrat Bravo Ramirez, wife of Spain’s Miguel Angel Jimenez.
