Ireland seeks to host The Open and AIG Women's Open at Portmarnock Golf Club, pending R&A approval, economic impact assessment, and local stakeholder support.
Ireland is considering a bid to host The Open golf tournament at Portmarnock Golf Club, following the 2019 success in Portrush, Northern Ireland. The government will explore hosting both The Open and the AIG Women's Open at the club, subject to positive discussions with The R&A, a favorable economic impact assessment, and local stakeholder approval. If successful, it could boost Ireland's global golf reputation and increase participation, particularly for women.
