Walker Cup in Lahinch, Ireland


  • County Clare Ireland (map)

The Walker Cup is the best viewing experience in all of tournament golf.

Watch tomorrow’s stars, without the crowds—or the ropes.

Featuring the top ranked amateurs from Great Britain and Ireland vs. the top ranked amateurs from the USA, this is your chance to see tomorrow’s Ryder Cup competitors without the crowds—and for a fraction of the price. 

We typically focus on golf trips to Scotland, but when we heard that the Walker Cup is headed to Lahinch, we couldn’t refuse.

Lahinch is the darling of Irish links golf: a stone's throw from the Cliffs of Moher, along an idyllic stretch of white sand beach, with some of the quirkiest and most colourful holes on the planet.

What to expect

When they zig, we zag.

We'll start with 2 days at the Walker Cup in Lahinch. Since Lahinch is within striking distance to some of the most famous golf in Ireland (think: Ballybunion, Old Head, Waterville, Tralee), our educated guess is that the average golf fan will stick to the Southwest.

But we’re not the average golf fans. When the crowds zig (aka: fight over tee times around Lahinch), we zag and skip town to head north. We’re going to tick off a mix of World Top 10s and lesser-known gems along the north coastline of Ireland and into Northern Ireland.

These are courses that aren’t even on your bucket list yet—but they should be.
