There is added excitement to this year event with the long-awaited return of Cavan’s Paul Brady to action on Irish soil. But the big guns in McCarthy, Nash and Mulkerrins will be very keen to show Brady who’s number 1 in 2020.
In the Ladies Open, there is a notable playing missing from the high-quality field with Cork’s Catriona Casey giving this event a miss. But with McMahon, Reilly and a host of other top players in action, the field is still very strong with a lot of players hoping to pick up very valuable ranking points with Casey missing.
