The Dromoland Castle team extend our heartfelt condolences on the loss of the esteemed course designer, Ron Kirby.
Renowned for his creative touch, Mr. Kirby intricately crafted the 18th green of the Dromoland Golf Course, etching the design onto a napkin while seated by the cocktail bar`s window.
We were truly honoured to have welcomed Mr. Kirby back to Dromoland last year, where he witnessed his masterpiece serving as the venue for the Women`s Irish Open—an achievement that filled him with immense pride.
Our sympathies and thoughts are with his family and friends.
