Cork bring off magnificent double in Killarney

On a weekend of unbelievable tension, resilient Cork Golf Club brought off magnificent double in the Munster provincial finals staged on the Mahony’s Point course in Killarney.

On Saturday, they staged a remarkable rally to capture the Munster section of the Irish Senior Cup at the expense of Limerick and yesterday had to go three tie holes before defeating Waterford Castle in the Barton Shield decider.

Team captain Vincent Twohig was understandably delighted with the spirit his players displayed and they now move on to the national finals at Royal Tara on September 18-21 with confidence sky high.
