One Cork GAA Old Head Golf Classic
Thursday, October 27th saw many followers of Cork GAA take to the Old Head Golf Links in support of the inaugural One Cork GAA Golf Classic, with all funds raised going to the support of Cork Inter-county teams.
The sell-out event, sponsored by O’Flynn Group and Amarenco Group, saw over 30 teams battle with the world-renowned course and a challenging Atlantic breeze.
The former general manager of Old Head, Jim O’Brien, chaired the event’s organising committee which comprised of many Cork GAA supporters across various sectors.
Former Cork All Ireland winning greats Joe Deane, Ronan Curran, Kieran Murphy, Tony Nation, Tomás Mulcahy and Colman Corrigan all took to the course, with midfield general Shay Fahy keeping a watchful eye on proceedings.
The spoils were captured by the Sandy Lane team from Limerick who turned in an outstanding card, followed home by NB Shipping and the Malone’s in second and third place, respectively.
Thoughts have already turned to the 2023 event, which has been pencilled in for April 12th of next year, with significant interest expected once more.
