Barry Fennelly Forging A Future For Irish Golf in Maynooth

Barry Fennelly is the Manager of the Paddy Harrington Scholarship in Maynooth University. He sat down with Jonny for a discussion around the growth of the Scholarship, it's mandate to produce Tour Professional golfers and Co-Captaining the International Side for the Arnold Palmer Cup in Lahinch this year. Barry and I went into great detail on the R&A Student Series and how important that pathway is for his own player, but European amateur golf as a whole and why he only sees it growing and improving and becoming a legitimately viable alternative to golf in America for athletes looking to pursue a career as professional golfers.
