Blind golfers hope to inspire next generation

Some of the top blind golfers in Ireland hope to inspire a new generation to take up their clubs and tee-off as an international competition comes to Cork for the first time.

Players from Ireland and Scotland will tee-off today in the annual Celtic Cup competition at the Lee Valley golf club.

It will be the first time in the competition’s six-year history that the two-day event has been held in Cork.
