What an emotional story with a happy ending. We make the trip to Scotland and Ireland every year to play these famous courses. We will be adding to our list.

Eddie Hackett designed my local course too - Connemara Links. Love the place

Great piece Conor. Im pretty sure its Tom Coyne's favourite place.

I believe Enniscrone also holds a special place in TC’s heart as that is where his late father introduced to him golf in Ireland. Enniscrone is also one of my favorites- I view it as a ‘sister course’ and am a member of both.

I would also add to the suggested read list - Acestral Links by John Garrity - he discovered Carne years before TC and predates even Gerry and Fiona. A wonderful read

I do Gary… love Carne and all that it’s about
