About the Course
The Royal Dublin Golf Club, Ireland's second oldest, has hosted the Irish Open six times. Situated on Bull Island in Dublin Bay, a sandbank formed by 19th-century seawall construction. The course features a classic links layout, measuring 7,269 yards with a par of 72. Relatively flat and narrow, the course features long stretches of out-of-bounds. The greens are outstanding, complemented by brutally deep greenside bunkers.
