The 36-hole club has two links courses, the Dunluce Links and the Valley Links. In 1951, Royal Portrush hosted The Open Championship, the oldest of golf’s championships. The course was also ranked the fourth best course outside the United States in 2007 by Digest. Following the recent successes of Darren Clarke, Graeme McDowell, and Rory McIlroy we will be looking for an Irish win at this prestigious course. Our money is on Rory McIlroy and we hope that he remembers us to buy his own cherished number plate to celebrate.
