Wishing our friends at Lahinch the best of luck this week as they host one of golf's greatest events.

We know that the course, the town, and the spirit of the game will be showcased at their very best, ensuring a weekend of memories that will remain long after the final putt has dropped.

On this day in 1962, just one year after his Presidency, General Dwight D Eisenhower played our links.

The General needed a buggy due to a heart condition, and when Joe Carr said there wasn't a single golf cart in all of Ireland, an open-top Rolls Royce was sourced and they got on with their game.

The experience here doesn't start on the 1st tee, but from the moment you enter the gates. The first impression isn't a lavish sign or grand entrance, but rightly acres of fescue turf that line the journey to our clubhouse and set the tone for the day.

Ask 18 members their favourite hole and you'll probably get 18 different answers.

For long-time member and course record holder James, it's the closing hole that stands above the rest.

No two holes face the same direction here, which means you'll circumnavigate the entire compass as you play through the round.

It's one of the key ingredients that makes our layout so lauded.

The best way to play Portmarnock is from the green backwards. Where is the best angle to attack from, and how do you get there from the tee?

Our 10th is perhaps the best example of this simple but thoughtful ethos that has stood our links in such good stead for over a century.

The entire hole is dictated by the lone bunker and the fall-off to the right.

After a fire destroyed our first clubhouse, the existing version was opened in 1906 and has been our home ever since.

While it's been extended over the years, much of the original 1906 building still stands and remains a second home to members, just as it did back then.

Despite being one of Ireland's flattest links, where joy is found in firm surfaces and strategic bunkering rather than tall dunes, good views still exist throughout the round.

The opening hole is a clear contender, but the walk to the 4th tee on the Yellow alongside Portmarnock Beach is hard to beat.
