Two Irish On Walker Duty
The R&A has announced the Great Britain and Ireland team for the Walker Cup, being played at Royal Aberdeen Golf Club, Scotland. The GB&I team will face the United States of America over Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th September.
Nigel Edwards, Captain of the GB&I team said, “I’m very pleased with the team that has been selected and I’m sure a number of players will be disappointed to miss out.
“These players represent the strongest group of amateur golfers that GB&I has to offer and I believe that we will do very well at Royal Aberdeen”.
Paul Cutler and Alan Dunbar (pictured) of Ireland are included in the team to face the USA next month.
