Tiger Woods teed it up this week at the 2022 JP McManus Pro-Am in Ireland, and he continued his major championship preparation at an Irish classic.
Ahead of next week’s 150th British Open at St. Andrews, the three-time Open champion – twice at the Old Course, which Woods claims to be his favorite in golf – played a round alongside good friend Rory McIlroy on Thursday at Ballybunion.
The Old Course at Ballybunion sits at No. 7 on Golfweek’s Best list of classic courses in Great Britain and Ireland and is the highest-rated Irish course on the list (not counting No. 1 Royal County Down and No. 5 Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland).
