 The 63rd Dundalk Senior Scratch sponsored by One Finance will take place on Sunday, May 18, having moved from the September date it has occupied for the last few years. It remains a 36-hole event with a shotgun start for both rounds at 9am and 2pm.
Defending champion Caolan Rafferty will go in search of a sixth title on home turf and a second back-to-back triumph having successfully defended the title back in 2019. Rafferty, who will defend his East of Ireland title over the June Bank Holiday weekend, said he was looking forward to the challenge of mounting a successful defence of the Carroll Cup, which is awarded to the winner of the Scratch Cup. “A lot of lads will be looking for a good competitive golf test, especially with the East taking place a few weeks later. It was great to win it again last year and I want to keep on winning it for as long as I can,” said Rafferty who was on the GB&I Walker Cup team in 2019. Martin McDonnell, Managing Director of One Finance, said they were delighted to continue their sponsorship of the Dundalk Scratch Cup: “This is the ninth year we have been associated with the Scratch Cup and we hope those taking part will take inspiration from following in the footsteps of Padraig Harrington who won it 30 years ago.” Entries are now being accepted for the Dundalk Scratch Cup through the Pro Shop which can be contacted at [email protected] or 042-9322102. The Entry fee is €50 which includes soup and sandwiches between rounds and the handicap limit is 3.
