A Tournament Venue
Galgorm Spa & Golf Resort was the host venue to the 2020 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open when American John Catlin won in dramatic fashion. Securing the 2020 Irish Open was a historic moment for Galgorm and demonstrated the progressive nature of Northern Ireland's premier tournament venue.
The 2020 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open at Galgorm was the fourth time the prestigious tournament was staged in Northern Ireland since 2012. It was the first time the County Antrim venue hosted the island of Ireland's national Open with the event moving to the date (Sept 24-27) vacated by the postponed 2020 Ryder Cup due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
