Send us a textWelcome back for part 2 of a wonderful chat with Brian Doran who is the Bridgestone Order of Merit Champion 2024. We ended part one with Brian's impressive second place in the South of Ireland in Lahinch. We continue and jump straight into talking about his amazing victory in the Mulligan Scratch cup. Then onward to his club success with Millicent in the Barton Shield and then to representing Ireland in the Mid Am tournament in France. It all came down to the North of Ireland in Portrush and nothing was decided until the last putt was done. What an exciting year for Brian and 2025 is full of opportunity as he is now part of the High Performance team with Ireland. Well worth a listen. What a great guy!Follow us on instagram @atocpod and follow our YouTube channel @atocpod

In this episode of the continuing series, we learn about Sir Anthony's early golfing days on the North Coast of Portrush. He also covers the consequential matters of extended tenure, security and opportunity that access to additional golfing grounds to the east of the town afforded the wider membership. The thorny history of Sabbatarianism also raises its head through a golfing lense as he teases out how this matter was resisted, debated and resolved over the course of the mid 1920's.

Over the course of the next number of short episodes we wilI take a look at another character that influenced the early development and growth of golf in Ireland. Anthony Babington was a native of Co. Derry, educated at Glenalmond in Perthshire and Trinity College Dublin. Babington was introduced to golf at Lisfannon in Donegal and Royal Portrush. He was a scratch player of some repute, competing extensively in the elite national amateur championships of the day. However, it was in the administration of the game that he really excelled, influencing golf at Trinity College, Dollymount, Portrush, Belfast and beyond. Through the medium of his recently uncovered memoirs and historical writings I'm pleased to introduce you to the long golfing life of A.B. Babington and the positive influence that he brought to bear throughout the island of Ireland. I hope you enjoy his recollections! Many thanks for tuning in.

Thomas Gilroy contributed greatly to the growth of the game of golf in Ireland over the period from 1885 to 1895. During his time in Ireland he was recognised as the best player in the country, holding a handicap between scratch and +6. Gilroy was a founding member at Dollymount, Portrush, Mornington & Baltray. A serial winner and course record setter, he spread the gospel a gift from Scotland. I hope you enjoy his story! Many thanks for tuning in.

We are keeping an eye on golfing news/events during our summer break but while we are away from the ITFOG complex we thought that reposting part 2 of our chat with John Bamber, Chairman of the Championship Committee for the 2019 Open at Portrush, would generate excitement for next year's return to the north Antrim coast.New episodes coming in September but until then enjoy your summer.Interact with the podcast via our X portal @ITFOG_podcast or via Instagram @ITFOG

With the 2025 Open due to return to Portrush we thought it was a good time to reprise our episodes on what it takes to put on a major championship. We were fortunate to sit down with John Bamber, Chairman of the Championship Committee for the 2019 Open and hear all about the commitment/effort/determination required to get the Championship back to the north coast of Northern Ireland. This remains one of our highest rated episodes of the podcast and hopefully well worth the Foggies time to listen again. New episodes coming from late September. Interact with the podcast via our X portal @ITFOG_podcast or via Instagram @ITFOG. Have a great summer.

I am delighted to welcome to the Podcast Stephen from Lacada Brewery based in Portrush on the North Coast of Ireland. Lacada is a community owned co-operative brewery launched in 2014, and has its origins in a love of beer and brewing, a love of place, and a love of people.

This interview with Charlotte Dixon is an extract from a Best Possible Taste programme that is a celebration of Taste Causeway, an All-Ireland Foodie Destination Award Winner and an accredited Slow Food Destination in Northern Ireland. Charlotte talks about her journey from studying for a Chemistry Ph.D. to opening the Elephant Rock — an 18-bedroom boutique hotel perched on a rocky headland in the coastal town of Portrush. A small hotel with a big personality - the guestrooms are an elegant nod to a bygone era that beautifully complements the original Victorian Terrace building. The hotel's restaurant has a focus on fresh, local produce of the highest quality and welcomes overnight guests and day-trippers alike. Keep an eye out for some exciting upcoming food and drink events by following their social media.

In this episode of Eggsplorations, Fried Egg Golf brings in two guests they met out and about in Portstewart and Portrush. The first is Dr. Joe McGoldrick, who they met in the Harbor Bar on their first night in town and would run into again at the very same spot late the next night. Dr. Joe is a bit of a legend who has been all around the world golfing and surfing, but always comes back to Portrush to get right. He's also an incredible storyteller and one-liner wordsmith who charmed us over multiple days in Portrush. The second guest is Dave Lynas, who we ran into our first morning in Portstewart at one of the best coffee shops you'll encounter anywhere in the world, Lost & Found. Dave just so happens to be the owner and operator of said coffee shop, which was impeccably designed and looks out over the sea right on the cliffs. Dave grew up in Portstewart and could be a so-called “pioneer” in the surfing culture before it got big in the last 15 years or so. His discusses his roots in the Causeway Coast area and what drew him back with his family after a lengthy stint in Dublin. Both guests bring a local flavor from each town, sometimes framed as “rivals” but two gems where you could spend several weeks. They should give you a sense of the people, hospitality, and culture we've encountered.

Andy and Brendan record this Players Championship “preview” from the shore of Portrush in Northern Ireland and they have many questions about Jay Monahan's state of the tour (and pro golf?) press conference at TPC Sawgrass. They wonder why everyone was so worked up about it and if he was as poor and bumbling as portrayed. They also discuss the lack of pop around this Players, and how only some of it relates to the loss of talent in the field and how this event cannot even begin to argue it approximates a major now. They also discuss the overseeded and soft conditions they've been informed of from the ground, and whether it's fruitless to hope for anything else. The back half runs through some favorite tee times and not-so-favorite tee times, leading down the path of examining one player's recent resume that sort of brings to light Rory McIlroy's comments about a more “cutthroat” tour last week. Some one-and-done picks are made before they push off with an event of the week nominee they encountered in Northern Ireland.

Andy and Brendan record this from Portrush, where the driving on the wrong side of the road has improved … at least up until the point the car nearly went into the sea. Then they begin this episode with a Tosti Tale from the Puerto Rico Open, where there was a kerfuffle over where a ball might have crossed the hazard. Matteo Manassero is also given his flowers, per SGS custom. Then, at long last, they get to the No. 1 player in the world winning at Bay Hill. They discuss Scottie Scheffler's putting improvements and outline why Bay Hill, while an abomination of a golf course, is perfect for his strengths. They also discuss the Wyndham Clark “cheating” / mashing uproar, Rory's rollercoaster, and the rhetoric that the Tour needs to get more “cutthroat.” How would that work? LIV's Hong Kong event is also covered with a focus on Anthony Kim's impressive 65. Tiger not committing to The Players is covered in news. They have some thoughts on Brice Garnett, winner of the PR Open, and whether he is 4A or something else. Last but not least, they marvel at Hosung Choi making his Champions Tour debut at the Dump-in-a-Box Classic.

They say politics is a game, but an artist from Portrush has designed a set of trading cards, based on what he might call “typical” Catholics and Protestants. Fergus Boylan has been drawing sketches about Northern Ireland for papers and websites, but his latest venture's success has come of something as a surprise. From the Protestant café owner to the Catholic goth, characters from most towns in the North are given scores on their craic, strengths, bitterness and smarts...Image: X via @infiniteguff

The Official Coleraine Podcast was pleased to welcome summer recruit Jake Wallace on this week's show... The defender speaks about his time at The Showgrounds so far, his injury setbacks across the water at Fleetwood Town and how it was frustrating waiting for international clearance after putting pen-to-paper in the summer. Jake also opens up on playing full-time football, representing Northern Ireland at youth level and how he was made to feel more than welcome when he first entered the Coleraine changing room. The 19-year-old praised his family for their support, revealing how living in Fleetwood was quite like his native Portrush and how he would love to see his friend Patrick Kelly play for his favourite team West Ham United. As always, we would like to thank our sponsors The Lodge Hotel.

Golf aficionado Colm Campbell steps onto our audio greens to share the highs and lows of his journey from amateur links to the pinnacle of Irish golf. In a candid exchange, he recounts the electric atmosphere of the Irish Amateur Championship and how the familial embrace of lahinch stalwarts like Paddy and Paul shaped his experience. As we navigate Colm's story, the conversation illuminates the crucible of Warren Point, where his match play skills were honed among veteran club golfers, teaching him the art of thriving under the national spotlight.Moments on the 17th and 18th greens have defined careers, and Colm opens up about the mental acrobatics required to sink game-changing putts. His reflections serve as a masterclass in the psychology of golf, where poise meets practice, and even keel reigns supreme. The discussion pivots to the tactics of trailing in a tournament, the significance of precision driving over raw power, and the sweet culmination of transitioning his adeptness into match play victories—culminating with the pride of donning the Irish colors on the international stage.Balancing the fairways with family and a full-time job isn't your typical caddy walk, but Colm dispels the myth that the working golfer can't clinch titles. He speaks to the heart of every listener who's juggled a day job with a passion, sharing how a supportive family and a role within the golf industry have enabled him to keep swinging for success. Looking ahead, Colm's enthusiasm for prestigious tournaments like the Live on Trophy is palpable. From cherished memories of golfing trips with John Ross Galbraith to debating the charms of Lahinch versus Portrush, this episode is a testament to the enduring spirit of the game and the shared bonds it creates.Twitter @amateur_infoInstagram @irish_amateur_golf_infoFollow amateur info https://instagram.com/irish_amateur_golf_info?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==

We're off on our summer hols to an often overlooked part of the United Kingdom when it comes to craft beer. Actually, we don't leave South Staffordshire or Suffolk, but we - that's Dave B and Dave D - track down six breweries from Northern Ireland we haven't had beers from before as we present our latest Brew To Me special.We sample delights from Lacada Brewery, a community-owned co-operative from Portrush, Belfast-based Ormeau Brewing Co and Out Of Office Brewing, Spadetown Brewery in Lurgan, the innovative Our Brewery, a branch of equipment and ingredient supplier Ger 'Er Brewed, and McCrackens Brewery in Randalstown. It's a fascinating insight into names that often don't appear in the spotlight as all six are either nano or micro operations. We are joined by a representative from each brewery to talk us through their business, how and why they started and the beers they produce as we unearth some exceptional creations.The podcast is sponsored by online bottle shop Hops At Home, and Andy Marsh appears on most episodes with news on his latest stock and an offer for you to take advantage of.

Jumped on a train from Belfast to Portrush, Northern Ireland. Portrush is a seaside resort town and I was there during the off-season. I kinda equate it with Jersey Shore or Coney Island. Since it was the off-season there was no wait to see anything, downside is there wasn't really much going on to go see. This video is a quick highlight of the thing I saw and did in Belfast. Portrush is home to the Royal Portrush Golf Club, the only golf club outside Great Britain which has hosted The Open Championship in 1951 and 2019. SUBSCRIBE to watch more videos like this one!

Professor Paul Rouse from University College Dublin joins us on this episode to trace the origin story of Irish golf. Commentators often erroneously pair the games' development in Ireland to that of Scotland - in this episode we explore how its' development in Ireland has more commonalities with the development trajectory in England than that exhibited in Bonnie Scotland. From Elias de Butts documented efforts in 1762 on common land in Bray, Co. Wicklow, to the Scottish/Military influence through the Curragh Camp in Kildare, the Royal Clubs of Belfast, Dublin, Down and Portrush and onwards to the real golf boom in the late 1890's and onwards into the next few decades. How the Great War, 1916 Rising and the Irish civil war changed Ireland and its' golf clubs forever, not to mention the more recent new club boom and the democratisation of golf that accompanied the rise and subsequent economic fall of the Celtic Tiger, Floridian resort golf 'Irish Style', the Ryder Cup and where the game goes from here. Many thanks for tuning in, we hope you enjoy the show! Special Guest: Professor Paul Rouse.

If you follow us on social media or even listened to past episodes, you know that the 2022 Ireland trip was highly anticipated. Now, it's over. We bring you this episode as a Pepe x Bash banter sesh and call in three of our buddies who were on the trip. We talk golf, travel, and what it was like playing across the pond. Our lineup of courses we played is Portstewart, Portrush, Royal County Down, Ardglass, The Island, and Portmarnock. If you haven't been, you better go.We open up the episode and phone in our first guest, Brandon Katzeff, aka BKatz. We take his perspective on the trip and hear his thoughts. We ask what his most ‘miserable' moment in Ireland was..because, let's be honest, sometimes the course will get the best of ya. We then phone in our second ‘guest,' Brian John, aka Bimmer. Bimmer carries a smile wherever he goes. Fortunately, his smile and positive attitude helped to carry him through the links. We hear Bimmer's take on Ireland, and his excitement can't be missed. Bouncing like a kangaroo, everyone's weekend golf group needs a Bimmer!We wrap up the episode with our grand finale, Mr. Ian Patrick Archer, aka IPA! Ian is known for his social media game where he shares every and any bit of content he can capture. If you followed along, he conducted caddie interviews, swing shots, and other content from the trip.
