We're also taking every opportunity to highlight the fact that the Ryder Cup will take place at Adare Manor in 2027 and the recent announcement that The Open will return to Royal Portrush in 2025. Tourism Ireland will be pulling out all the stops once again to leverage the tourism potential of these prestigious sporting events, in Great Britain and in our other important golf markets."
