Three top Irish courses, two best mates, one glorious part of the world. If there is a better 3-2-1 in golf, I don’t know what it is.

The Atlantic Coast Challenge has become a pilgrimage for many — certainly for me — and the combination of Co Sligo, Enniscrone, and Carne golf clubs promises three links courses which I consider amongst the top 10 on the island.
