Ian Poulter is set to play the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open at Lahinch this summer, in what will be his first appearance in the Republic of Ireland in 13-years.
The Englishman, who has won five of the six Ryder Cups at which he’s competed, is playing the tournament for the first time since Portstewart in 2017.
Poulter joins major winners Padraig Harrington, Danny Willett and Graeme McDowell, former world number one Lee Westwood and defending champion Russell Knox in the field.
Three of the current top five players on the Race to Dubai – Shane Lowry, Justin Harding and Louis Oosthuizen – will also tee it up in Clare this July.
They said they needed a new postman in Lahinch, think I can do the job? 🤣#DDFIrishOpen pic.twitter.com/QznSYw6f9C
