Irish golf clubs make case for financial aid

More than 70% of Irish golf clubs have completed a survey the Golfing Union of Ireland hopes will make a persuasive case for economic aid for the sport when courses are allowed to reopen.

Golf courses on the island of Ireland have been closed since March 24 in the wake of both the Irish Government and the Northern Ireland Executive ramping up their restrictions on social distancing, travel, and gatherings, in their efforts to flatten the curve of Covid-19 coronavirus infections.
