Dutch champion and reigning Queen of the Roads, Silke Tulk, will top the bill at the West Cork Whiskey benefit festival at Skibbereen on the St. Patrick’s holiday weekend.

She teams up with Killian Kingston against Martin Coppinger and Claire O’Sullivan in what promises to be a fitting finale for the two-day event in support of Co-Action. This is a significant test in itself, but is also a key barometer of form heading into both the provincial and All-Ireland championships, but also the European championships in May. Tulk is a standout figure in European bowling who is bound to bring the crowds to the Marsh Road.
