Mount Juliet<br />
Looking ahead, Irish Region Secretary<br />
Michael McCumiskey remarked: “Mount<br />
Juliet is regarded as one of the best golf<br />
resorts in the world and we are delighted<br />
they are hosting this year’s Irish PGA<br />
Championship. It is a resort with a rich<br />
tournament history. It was the venue <strong>for</strong> the<br />
Irish Open from 1993 to 1995 and two World<br />
<strong>Golf</strong> Championships in 2002 and 2004,<br />
when Tiger Woods and Ernie Els were<br />
triumphant.”<br />
McCumiskey added: “The Mount Juliet<br />
course is always in pristine condition and<br />
we look <strong>for</strong>ward to staging another<br />
successful Irish PGA Championship.”<br />
In view of the popularity of the event it is<br />
necessary to stage qualifying rounds at<br />
Mount Juliet on September 4th and 25th.<br />
The Championship proper at Mount Juliet<br />
in October will involve a field of 102<br />
professionals.<br />
