Pádraig pencils in Irish Open at Lahinch

Pádraig Harrington has confirmed he will return to Lahinch Golf Club for the first time since his amateur days at this July’s Dubai Duty Free Irish Open. The three-time Major champion and 2020 European Ryder Cup Captain will be making his first appearance at Lahinch since winning the Irish Amateur Close on the famous Clare links in 1995.

Harrington is the latest star to join the field for this year’s European Tour Rolex Series event, hosted by Paul McGinley, from July 4-7, adding his name to a roster including Tommy Fleetwood, Lee Westwood, and Danny Willett, as well as home favourite Shane Lowry.
