Today marks the Centenary of the birth of Ireland’s first superstar of golf: Jimmy Bruen. Born May 8th, 1920. A Corkman, an Irishman and a global phenomenon in golf, whilst still in his teens. Thank you for all that you did to popularise golf on our Emerald Isle. #jimmybruen
A picture of unbridled happiness. Seve and the European team captain, @jacklin_tony after the @RyderCupEurope emerged victorious against the Americans on home soil at Muirfield Village in 1987. Seve sadly passed away 14 years ago today, May 7th, 2011.
Incredible win by golf’s next big star.

Rahm to win and grab the 3rd leg of the slam. Loves Irish links too. Portrush will be fascinating for many reasons……. #nostradamus

68 Gun salute! RIP to a great frontman. 🏴🎸
RIP Mike Peters. In a lifetime spent in and around the music biz, I never heard a bad word said about Mike. That's some tribute.
Great to watch the ladies battling it out in the year’s first Major @Chevron_Golf Personal highlight? Listening and watching Trish Johnson on @SkySportsGolf Just love her no filter approach; she’s just fantastic with her perspective and insight, all delivered so naturally.⛳️
Thanks, always a fan of your work. 🇨🇦☘️⛳️

A lot has happened in the 20 years since filming this interview for @RTEsport (May 6th, 2005). Even back then, @McIlroyRory was chasing an Irish Grand Slam as a newly minted 16 year old.
Two legends of the @WalkerCup gone in the space of a fortnight: Peter McEvoy (🇬🇧🇮🇪) and now, Jay Sigel (🇺🇸). May they rest in peace. Two Gladiators and great gentlemen.

Sports headline of the year! All credit to @DailyMailUK wordsmith, Ben Winstanley for coming up with it. Dean Martin would be proud 😉 📝🎵
Great throwback! Lucky to have had a front row seat on my own debut in the commentary box at the Irish Open. 💚⛳️
Love this footage of 16 year old Rory McIlroy at the 2005 Irish Open as an amateur. His good friend Harry Diamond was on his bag and they just won the Masters together to complete Rory’s career slam. Amazing how these things come full circle 🙌
A Green Jacket for him and a birthday present from Augusta for her 😉⛳️💚☘️ instagram.com/p/DIbt9tkRRQV/…
