Five years is a long time in any walk of life, not least elite-level golf, and Adare Manor director of golf operations Andy McMahon is certainly not going to predict how the Tom Fazio-designed 7,500-yard parkland course will be prepared for the 2027 Ryder Cup.

“We always get asked ‘how will you change it for the Ryder Cup in terms of set-up?’ The answer is, it’s five years away,” McMahon said on the eve of the 2022 JP McManus Pro-Am.
