Killarney reserve dates as Open options explored

KILLARNEY Golf and Fishing Club confirmed last night that they have reserved the week of the proposed Irish Open in 2011 pending a definite announcement that the championship will take place in July.

Killarney reserve dates as Open options explored

The European Tour schedule published on Sunday lists the Irish Open for July 28-31 without a venue although chief executive George O’Grady stated that “Killarney have been kind enough to give me an option to take the tournament there which would be my choice. I will probably confirm that with Killarney in the next week or two.”

A great deal, however, will depend on whether or not the Tour can come up with a commercial sponsor to replace ‘3’ who pulled out unexpectedly a few weeks ago.
