Graeme’s beach party

IT was the morning after the night before at Brophy’s Tavern in Carmel.

Graeme McDowell’s manager Conor Ridge – dubbed Jerry Maguire by the new US Open champion – was fielding calls every second.

One minute it was the Six One News, then Des Cahill. Earlier he had organised appearances on last night’s Jay Leno show and possibly, a walk-on cameo in the final episode of this season’s mega-hit series “Entourage”.
