The world's top golfers will be flying into Ireland next week to compete in JP McManus' Pro-Am. And Padraig Harrington has revealed how Limerick man JP manages to convince the golf stars to travel to Ireland for the big event.
The Pro-Am, which takes place in Adare Manor, will see 10 of the top 11 players in the world rankings play next Monday and Tuesday. McManus has raised over €140m for charities in the area from the famous golf tournament - the last event took place a decade ago and raised €43.7m.
With Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy heading a stellar event surpassed only by the Masters in world golf this year, Harrington explains how McManus attracts the cream of the crop.
