Killarney back on course for success

A top golf club, handicapped for several years by a huge debt, is finally out of the rough.

Killarney Golf and Fishing Club made a trading profit of €73,000 for the year ending September 2014 — the first surplus since 2007.

The club, a key part of the area’s multi-million euro tourism network, has also reported a rise in green fee bookings for 2015.
