The Irish Open is reborn as Harrington seals victory
After 25 years of waiting, the Irish public finally has a chance to celebrate a hometown victory thanks to Padraig Harrington, who clinched a dramatic, suspense filled victory following a playoff with Welshman Bradley Dredge. Adare Manor Hotel & Golf Resort played host to a crowd of almost 60,000 spectators at the inaugural Irish Open at the picturesque Robert Trent Jones Snr designed course. The Irish Open will take place in Adare Manor Hotel & Golf Resort again in 2008 & 2009.
