Mount Juliet to host as 2020 Irish Open returns to parkland layout

Tiger Woods, Ernie Els, Nick Faldo, and Bernhard Langer are among previous winners at the Kilkenny course.

The Dubai Duty Free Irish Open will move away from a links layout in 2020 as Mount Juliet will host the tournament.

The national open's return to a parkland venue comes as the tournament is moved to a May date in the European Tour calendar, having been hosted two weeks before the British Open last July. It will take place between Thursday, May 28, and Sunday, May 31, 2020.
