It’s no secret that Brendan Lawlor has been bursting through barriers all in the name of putting Disability Golf on the map in recent years.
From becoming the first player with a disability to compete on the European Tour, to teeing up this month at the inaugural ISPS Handa All Abilities Champions Playoff in Hawaii alongside the stars of the PGA Tour, Lawlor has been making headlines for all the right reasons during his short professional career, and now he’s got the attention of the highest office in Ireland.
The Louth man and Modest! Golf client was invited to meet Taoiseach Michael Martin at Leinster House on Monday where the pair discussed all things Disability Golf, not least one avenue that remains stubborn to Lawlor’s advances thus far, that of Paralympic inclusion.
