Ladies get on course

The Olympics will be in full flow when the Ladies’ Irish Open takes place at Killeen Castle, Co Meath, next Friday to Sunday, August 3rd to 5th, with hopefully less congestion than London experienced.

If you're not an expert on birdies and eagles, you can still enjoy the event, with live music and a farmers' market supplying food. Two 17-year-olds who won't be hanging around the entertainment amenities are Cavan twins Leona and Lisa Maguire, right, who are competing in the event. Putter-ing us to shame! See ladiesirishopen.ie
