Listen Later

Thomas Gilroy contributed greatly to the growth of the game of golf in Ireland over the period from 1885 to 1895.

During his time in Ireland he was recognised as the best player in the country, holding a handicap between scratch and +6.

Gilroy was a founding member at Dollymount, Portrush, Mornington & Baltray.

A serial winner and course record setter, he spread the gospel a gift from Scotland.

I hope you enjoy his story!

Many thanks for tuning in.
