Paul Dunne living the dream and won’t be distracted at Walker Cup

Given the summer he’s had, this seems like a quiet week for Paul Dunne.

Having stared down the best players in the world at the Open Championship, Dunne will wear the GB&I colours tomorrow when the home team take on the US in the 45th Walker Cup match at Royal Lytham & St Anne’s. One of five Irish in what is a record number of home-grown players in the Great Britain & Ireland team, Dunne will not be distracted from the task at hand.

“Obviously it’s a lifetime ambition for anyone from Great Britain and Ireland to make the team. It’s brilliant to have our names on the team but there’s a job to do still,” says the 22-year-old from Greystones.
