Record prize fund for Smurfit European Open

A record prize fund of €3.336,288 – up €145,000 on last year – will be on offer at the Smurfit European Open at The K Club in Ireland this summer.

The event, one of the European Tour’s flagship tournaments, will revert to the Palmer Course (formerly the North Course) – which will also host the 2006 Ryder Cup – in June after being played on the Smurfit (South) Course last year.
