Kevin Phelan happy plotting his own golfing course

Kevin Phelan has packed just about everything into his first 18 months as professional bar a win.

However, given his progress since he took the plunge after the 2013 Walker Cup, the touring professional for Mount Juliet will soon be one of Ireland’s established tour stars.

The 24-year old’s third place finish in the Trophée Hassan II in Morocco on Sunday brought with it a tinge of disappointment that he couldn’t get that long-awaited maiden victory.
