In one sense, Stuart Grehan is ahead of schedule when he makes his Walker Cup debut for Great Britain and Ireland this weekend at Cypress Pont. Though there are regrets too he has had to wait until the 50th staging of amateur golf's prestigious team competition.
The Tullamore man made the 2017 GB&I team, but had to withdraw after breaking his arm playing soccer.
