Clonmel Golf Club – Notes
Clonmel Golf Club Welcomed the Claret Jug
Clonmel Golf Club recently celebrated a historic occasion as it proudly hosted the Claret Jug — one of the most iconic trophies in the world of golf and sport.
The event was made possible through the collaboration of Golf Ireland and The R&A (Royal and Ancient), and the club extended its sincere appreciation to both organisations for selecting Clonmel as the venue for this prestigious visit.
Representatives from Golf Ireland and The R&A joined club officials, local government representatives, dignitaries, members, and guests for a memorable day that marked a proud moment in the club’s rich history.
Attendees had the unique opportunity to take photographs with the famous trophy, with official photography taking place throughout the day by Cahir Media. The club’s restaurant was open to guests, serving lunch, teas, coffees, and light refreshments.
The event was warmly received by all in attendance, and will be fondly remembered as a landmark day for Clonmel Golf Club.
