KiIdare played host to the famous matches of the 2006 Ryder Cup! The K Club was the scene of an unforgettable European team victory, captained by Ian Woosnam and led by the heroic Darren Clarke.
Kildare is bordered by Dublin and recognised as the centre of the Irish horse industry – with The Curragh Racecourse home to the Irish Derby, Oaks and Guineas.
Kildare offers golfers an excellent choice of championship golf – with two Arnold Palmer-designed courses at the K Club, the Montgomerie and O’Meara Courses at Carton House, in addition to the PGA National design of Christy O Connor Jnr – another Ryder Cup hero from 1989. |
