This week’s Amgen Irish Open at The K Club has attracted one of the strongest fields to date on the DP World Tour schedule, with Sunday’s final-round a sell-out and close to 80,000 spectators expected to come through the gates throughout the week.
And one of the off-course attractions situated in the championship village is The Academy, a collaboration between the PGA in Ireland and the DP World Tour, which sees 10 of the top PGA Professionals from all over the island providing free golf coaching to the attending fans.
Using Foresight technology which measures ball flight, ball and club-head speed, swing path, and shot distance, the PGA Professionals will offer guidance on swing, stance, setup, with the results and data speaking for themselves.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned and accomplished player or a recent addition, golfers of all abilities are welcome, and it’s an ideal way to introduce new players to the game, ensuring their fundamentals are correct, right from the start.
So, if you’re at The K Club this week, why not swing by the PGA Academy. It’s the perfect place for all members of the family to move a step closer to emulating the game’s leading players – the very heroes they’re there to watch.
These signatures could be worth some money in a few years!
But even if you’re not at The K Club, accessing PGA Professional coaching has never been easier, and both attendees and non-attendees alike can find a PGA Professional in their area via PGA Play.
PGA Play is a free digital platform that connects golfers looking for lessons – as well as those wanting to take up the game – with their local PGA Professionals in the UK and Ireland, and a number of overseas locations.
