Ryder Cup Legend Paul Mc Ginley affirms €1.75 m. makeover of Letterkenny Golf Club

Ryder Cup Legend Paul Mc Ginley played an exhibition fourball on our recently refurbished course on Monday  27 July 2009. Several hundred spectators enjoyed the high quality golf on offer in glorious sunshine. It was Paul's first time to play the course and he shot a 1 under par 71.

Speaking to reporters after the game he stated that the course was in excellent condition, really enjoyable and that the major investment was money well spent. He stated that all 18 holes were excellent - just that the greens on final 8 required local knowledge and that he looked forward to playing them again now that he knows them.

Paul Mc Ginley partnered with Charlie Collins, CEO Highland Radio, defeated Club Captain Brian O'Donnell and 2006 Club Captain John Doran on the 17 th after a very tight and entertaining game around The Leading Parkland Course in the North West.

The Club Captain made a presentation of club sweaters to Paul and his father Mick  and highlighted the fact that Letterkenny was an ideal base for touring Donegal and playing some of the many high quality course all within an hours drive.
