Priceless

Few of the random amateurs posting their groups on twitter, I'd imagine the full listings will be out soon

There's a holding page ready...

Tee Times are out

MisterAnarchy · 02-07-2022 10:59pm

Its very heavily stacked towards the afternoons, especially Monday, which suits me.

Tiger playing with the Smurfits again, hmm, the odds of that.

I hope they have improved a bit.

Neewollah · 03-07-2022 9:21am

Anyone know if there will be a few grandstands up. Have a wife halfway through pregnancy and will need a few places to rest for a while.

Golfgraffix · 03-07-2022 9:59am

No grandstands at all

Neewollah · 03-07-2022 10:01am

Thanks a million. Will bring the camping chair so

macslash · 03-07-2022 11:05am

Booked into the carpark but not sure if I'll make Tuesday so the lad taking the cap will have a different car reg. Anyone in the same boat? Also never got the carpark passes so hoping I'll get in okay

Neewollah · 03-07-2022 11:54am

Got an email the other day to say that car registration doesn't have to match the one that booked. Just wear your hat and have your parking permit and all is good

Mantis Toboggan · 03-07-2022 1:29pm

Surprised to see Keith Pelley down to play.

macslash · 03-07-2022 2:11pm

Great stuff thanks. Unfortunately the permit never arrived either but I have the email confirming. Thanks

macslash · 03-07-2022 2:33pm

Also wondering where would be best to set up? I was thinking near the 1st tee or green. Don't think I'll follow around. Not sure though.

demakinz · 03-07-2022 3:54pm

Was at the Irish open Thursday and just tested positive for covid this morning. Absolutely ragin, bought the tickets when they came out first in 2019 when they were €50 for the two days. Such bad luck avoided the pox for 2.5 years. Probably the last time to see tiger and a field so good.

And Jay Monaghan 🤔

Seve OB · 03-07-2022 6:14pm

Also same boat here. Never received parking passes in post. See there are a few car park options so not sure where to go?

redzerdrog · 03-07-2022 7:38pm

how much does it cost for a team of Ams in this event?

thecretinhop · 03-07-2022 7:46pm

Neg test I might be on my way after all! It is day 7 too

The Big Easy · 03-07-2022 10:35pm

Nick Faldo playing as an Am that's bizarre!

big_drive · 03-07-2022 10:59pm

All the amateurs are getting free TaylorMade clubs as part of their goodie bags, all custom fitted for them on the range

The last gaa classic I played in we got a bottle of water, a banana and a mars bar 🤣

slave1 · 04-07-2022 7:24am

Weather looks like it's going to behave, enjoy lads and lasses, get them photos posted

slave1 · 04-07-2022 8:44am

Okay folks, looks like being a lovely few days golf. LIV posts deleted, no more please as that's a wormhole we want to avoid OT.

Post here instead

The last time it was played, it was €100,000 to enter a team. Those that played with Woods paid €500,000 apparently. This year I was told it was €500,000 to enter a team, not sure how true that is but I wouldn’t be surprised. Definitely 6 figures though.

Mantis Toboggan · 04-07-2022 10:06am

250000 a team apparently!

slave1 · 04-07-2022 10:39am

Looking at the list, I'd be stuck between Paddy and JT, not that I would be paying that amount, good luck to those that can afford it

Mantis Toboggan · 04-07-2022 10:48am

Walked the course, in phenomenal shape, absolutely pristine.

googlewhack · 04-07-2022 11:19am

Did anyone manage to park somewhere today without booking ahead? Trying to figure how to approach travelling tomorrow. I’d also happily purchase a parking ticket for tomorrow from anyone that has one spare 😃

Man Vs ManUre · 04-07-2022 11:35am

Why would anyone even watch this crap?? A bunch of self-obsessed celebrities playing golf, everyone just there because they have more money than brains. The only sport worse than golf is golf being played by celebrities.

All the amateurs, they're all just rich people who want to play with the pros right? Each amateur has to pay around 150k to play?

Mantis Toboggan · 04-07-2022 11:45am

Got the hat signed by the Ryder cup captain 😁

Love Island is way better than even normal golf, let alone this freak show version of golf.

Judging from the list of names above there appears to be two categories of amateur. The "celebrity" kind, like Michael O'Leary, who can probably well afford to donate 50 k to his chosen charity and then you have ordinary golf fans - members of local clubs - who could not afford to. The biggest stars, Woods, Thomas and McIlroy are paired with the wealthiest amateurs, Desmonds, McManus's and Smurfits.
