County Sligo
One of Ireland's great championship links, Peter Aliss described it "as a tremendous test for the highest quality player and great fun for the modest competitor". The club has hosted most of Ireland's major championships in its long and venerable history. Three large beaches beneath the cliffs keep the Atlantic at bay to the west of the course, while towering Benbulben competes with the ocean for scenic splendor on the land side. Wind from the sea plays a constant factor, but the 3rd, 5th, 10th and 14th holes have very satisfying downhill drives to compensate.
