Playing Golf at The Augusta National of Ireland!

Ever wanted to play Augusta National? Home to arguably the biggest golf tournament in the world, The Masters!

Opened in 2002 to much acclaim, the reputation of Druid’s Glen has only strengthened since its inception and was named European Golf Resort of the Year in 2005. In the years since the resort has continued to improve, with both the Druids Glen and Druids Heath courses maturing into spectacular layouts. However, the Druids Glen Course steals the show, the 4-time Irish Open host has been compared to Augusta National by many great golfers.

From the forest that once was home to the Druids, Pat Ruddy and Tom Craddock have created a masterpiece, featuring numerous spectacular holes. The most famous may be the 12th, a delightful downhill par-3 where golfers play over the now famous bank of flowers in the shape of a Celtic Cross, but this is but one hole in a course of classics.

Golf Resort of The Year winner in 2005

we visited Augusta National and then flew to Ireland to see the golf course that’s dubbed the Augusta lookalike the the best par 3’s like best set of par 3’s you ever going see so I know if there’s going to be par freeze today in this challenge so I’ve just been like come on can we just not have shots on the par 3’s please yeah that’s absolutely fine no problem no worries for me do anything I will still win I’ll become that victorious I I perform well under pressure so we are at Druids Glen the Augusta of Ireland and that means for something surely the standard fantastic the conditioning fantastic and a design fantastic the azaleas around you’ve got the pristine white sand which definitely looks like the sand they use at Augusta you know it looks very very similar and just look at the course just really this is a golfers paradise you know like um you know that feeling that we had when we teed off at the first at the old course yeah I feel like it’s very similar one cuz I feel like I’m tearing off Augusta its saying 142 142 yeah not bad not bad at I’m nervous Oh my days no way no way yes get in I’m so happy you don’t have a shot get in I don’t need it look at that look at that I feel like you you just hit my ball he he just hit my ball I’m I’m this is I’m not having this I’m not having this right how do I follow that I don’t really know that’s a beautiful shot and three down has that going into the water surely surely nervous really not hard no no that’s not a bad line though yeah let’s a good shot Leo I mean yours brilliant do you know I had the line but it just got to roll a bit more the driver’s seat is yeah I just get this close and I should be okay your putting is on fire yeah I have to give it to you though it was a great shot in than you know I’m I’m bantering you about it I’m trying to get in your head but I am happy to see you play good golf what’s the line oh it’s a knee wobbler still it’s a knee this is interesting now knee wobble right for the half yeah you need this to secure a half yes well you know my part’s still not it’s not easy oh I missed r no yes no sorry I really couldn’t contain that yet no this isn’t easy oh it’s easy it’s really not come on Augusta we’re still on boys and girls you just trying to keep it are you just trying to keep it interesting no I’m not I’m trying to trying to finish you trying to finish you oh my days 13th 444 yards par 4 and me and Ali were told that this is the best par 4 we’ll ever play that’s a very big statement that is a very big statement I love that like the hotel’s up there as well sitting above this hole it’s quite nice actually we’ll be there back we’ll be back there later yes we will this is incredible this hole I don’t know are you driver yeah think so let me just check the yardage let me just make sure on that the thing is is because it’s a slice as paradise and it’s like if I’m going to drive on any hole it should be this it’s 216 to the middle of a fairway all right with a cut yeah I’m going for it I know Ali’s thinking thank God he’s going for it we like to play with Leo because he hits driver anywhere left right send her down you’ve been hitting a draw today so yeah but what I’m I’m going to revert back to my old swing you’ll see that this will go very out and then in and you’ll see that it will slice like crazy I think that’s good it could be really good or just where is it yeah great shot right go we had found it so very close oh you got away with that but Leo I I think you deserved it I really just brought it around that’s very nice shot in isn’t it yeah how far have you got 210 wow that’s that’s a big hit that’s a that is a big hit is tough hole isn’t it in into wind as well 210 how’s he playing it how’s he playing it that’s really difficult I’d like to apologise every person that watches this video but I I I’m going to lay up I there you got a shot though it’s two it’s 21 yards into wind I’m in the rough as much as I want to I feel like I have less respect for myself we’re there for the same now yeah now we now we’re playing golf if I’m going in here I mean this is yeah you going for it OB why would I go for it yeah you have to I’m really worried you have got better lay in than me I think better line in oh come out did you see it fall yeah it went over what do you mean it it went through it I generally think it’s over there he thinks but I thought that was that was the line I had to take I had to try and hit a high draw I hit it so nice I generally take that as long as it’s not in those flowers if I have to take a drop I you know I’m struggling but you still got you know it should be fine come on how are you feeling wait how are you feeling comfortable that is ridiculous that is is ridiculous that is ridiculous it’s literally next to the hole how guys that was a good shot come on tell me that great shot that was good that had like a little sting on it that is that A1 it actually looks next it’s a foot I think it’s quite long still yeah but it was going straight for the pin hello definitely came in above this tree where oh nice I still think that you you have the shots in the locker to put these close though above the feet and I can’t really shove it right I just I’m not really sure what to do I might just hit and hope concede that’s what you should do pretty I could just I mean that’s more the most I can actually do it’s generally just fluff no go go go no it’s over so that’s your one you’ve got three four so you’re putting for bogey two for the hole and I feel like you deserve this hole can you just finish this up now finish this up oh oh oh that you you raced it but thats fine still in the driver seat you am I going to go first yeah me to go just try and put this in to win just like that well up Leo Leo Leo great play good course management well done yeah I play that one well done that’s really good thank you right we’ve now made our way to the 17th and Ireland green it’s just you being a bandit that’s what I’ve come that’s that’s the mentality I’ve got we’ve taken shot I don’t get a shot on this I didn’t get a shot on the the other PA three that we played today that’s only two shot uh but yeah fair play you’ve played well you’ve played above you’ve definitely played to about a single handicap I’m pretty sure in this you’ve been really good yeah how many yards is this do we know 11010 island green 17th okay let’s do it 17th 125 125 yeah well it’s 110 from the from the plate from from the plate from the plate it’s 110 that must be is the PIN at the back then yeah I think so yeah what was that for you little little wedge little P wedge little P wedge no ive gone for 52 oh a 52 well I think you’re going to stiff this reverse psychology oh look now he’s a pro he’s does he does aim point and now he does and now he does makes a tea out of the turf that’s uh that was my coach’s tip Aaron big up Aaron oh it’s going to be good is it it’s dancing is holding on this is the one 152 as well you going for 50 ear yeah I’m not really sure how to play it I really haven’t hit into the Drop Zone we go where did I drop it though I think I’m just going to play one from here yeah I’ll just take three of the tea all right free up the have you conceded yeah? hole and that is Druids Glen done thoughts on the course you know what yeah druid’s Glenn has been incredible like yesterday with our road trip when we went to k club incredible right and I was thinking to myself like K Club is is so good I don’t know what’s going to like compete with it Druid Glenn certainly not better but
