The K Club will once again play host to Europe's largest Pro-Am on Monday 10th and Tuesday 11th August, welcoming 100 teams from Ireland, the UK and across Europe for two days of elite competition on its world-renowned Palmer North and Palmer South championship courses.
The prestigious event will feature teams of three amateurs and one PGA Professional competing in a 36-hole Stableford competition, while the professionals simultaneously contest an individual strokeplay event for a €100,000 prize fund – the largest PGA Pro-Am purse in Europe.
The field will include leading PGA professionals and senior tour players including Gary Murphy, Scott Henderson and reigning Irish PGA Order of Merit champion Simon Thornton, alongside competitors travelling from Ireland, England, Scotland, Spain and beyond.
Golf fans will be able to catch up on the action with the tournament televised on Premier Sports and presented by Nathan Murphy.
The tournament will also support Down Syndrome Ireland, with a dedicated Charity Hole helping to raise funds for the organisation throughout the event.
The K Club’s Director of Golf Michael Maxwell said: "We're proud to welcome players from across Ireland and Europe back to The K Club for what has become one of the most anticipated events in the golfing calendar. Bringing together leading professionals, passionate amateurs and outstanding championship golf, the Pro-Am showcases everything that makes The K Club such a special venue. With live television coverage, an exceptional international field and plenty for spectators to enjoy, we're looking forward to another memorable two days."
The K Club Pro-Am takes place on Monday 10th and Tuesday 11th August at The K Club, Straffan, Co. Kildare.
