James O’Donovan was the toast of the Irish at Reutum in the Netherlands when he captured the European senior men’s silver medal on a pristine Dutch Moors course yesterday. 

Eoin Healy won the boys U18 silver medal, Edmund Sexton won the senior men’s bronze and Tom O’Donovan the U18 bronze. The Irish senior men won the team gold medal, the U18 boys took the silver team medals and the senior women and girls U18 both won bronze.

The Dutch won three of the four individual gold medals, two silver medals and a bronze.
