British Open-baiting Greystones-based amateur golfer Paul Dunne has been named alongside Gavin Moynihan, Cormac Sharvin, Gary Hurley and Jack Hune to represent Great Britian and Ireland at this year’s Walker Cup.
Brian Keogh writes:
It’s not easy to outstrip the likes of Joe Carr, Jimmy Bruen, Cecil Ewing or Max McCready but a quintet of Irish amateur stars pulled it off today when they were named by the R&A in the Great Britain and Ireland team to face the USA in the 2015 Walker Cup match at Royal Lytham & St Annes from September 12-13.

The late 98FM Sports Editor Johnny Lyons

It meant phoning around the club PROs between 9pm and 10pm, collecting the results. Johnny’s personality turned it into a performance. — Ross O’Carroll-Kelly (@RossOCK) August 19, 2015
One day, Elaine Geraghty of 98fm was in the building and she said, “Who’s that on the radio?” She was told, “That’s not the radio.”

Elaine said, “He needs to be on the radio.” Anyway, the following week, he was on 98fm. — Ross O’Carroll-Kelly (@RossOCK) August 19, 2015
