Paul McGinley has presented a total of €75,000 to two local community groups in North Clare, as a thank you to the community for their work in making the Dubai Duty Irish Open a success.
McGinley’s Foundation raised the money on the week of the Irish Open in Lahinch in July, and on Friday he returned there to present €60,000 to the local national school, with that money going towards the installation of a new Astroturf facility.
A further €15,000 will help support services including counselling at the North West Clare Family Resource Centre.
