Ryder Cup 2027

A proper reward for JP for winning the world series hurling championship.

JP is a visionary

They were when they tried to build it twenty years ago but they are crying out for it now. I can see the argument against it for some towns, but Adare will only attract more visitors when they have the bypass.

Nobody is against the Adare bypass itself but there a lot of unhappy folks along the route to Foynes alright where currently rural houses will soon be backing onto a motorway, have their farms split in half etc. Same as any new road really I guess but made worse by the fact that there is no road at all serving this Foynes to Adare route currently. They’ve also taken a very long winded route so they could jam the Adare bypass in while they were doing it.

Don’t expect to get a free ticket and be on the course.
Probably be positioned outside Colbert Station.

It’ll be a hoor of a job if the bypass isn’t finished.

This article keeps repeating itself and answers no questions.

Can you buy tickets ‘for Irish supporters’ and give them to your yank buddies?

at a cost of €499 per daily ticket

Sweet baby jebus

US supporters are supposed to be restricted to the designated US end. I imagine there will be stewards at the course to stop US supporters trying to bunk into the European sections and if such interlopers are caught they’ll be thrown out.

I doubt that says Croker.

You can’t charge the golf crowd enough in fairness

500 quid for a Ryder cup ticket

How much would a decent ticket be I wonder, not hanging around with the plebs

Surely €500 would be low for a ticket to a once in a lifetime event?

It’s a bienniel event mate.

What does “The Green” tickets mean? You need to pay extra to access the green area?

If you’re after getting ten grand for sticking a family of yanks in the garden shed you won’t let ticket prices bother you too much
