Flashback: Catriona Matthew wins the last event in 2012
The Women’s Irish Open will be played in 2022 for the first time since 2012 when it is staged as part of the Ladies European Tour.
Catriona Matthew, captain of the victorious European team in the Solheim Cup in September, won the last tournament at Killeen Castle.
Golf Ireland CEO Mark Kennelly was delighted the event was back on the tour schedule.
Kennelly said: “I would like to thank both organisations for the work done behind the scenes that has led us to this announcement and we look forward to further details.
“We hope the return of the Women’s Irish Open will continue to inspire the next generation.”
