2021 JP McManus Pro Am postponed for one year

The JP McManus Pro-Am Steering Committee has today announced the rescheduling of the 2021 tournament, which was due to be held this July (5th & 6th) at Adare Manor, Co. Limerick. The event will now take place July 4th & 5th, 2022.

 

The postponement comes amid the continuing uncertainty around large-scale gatherings taking place both in Ireland and across the globe. With over 40,000 attendees expected from many different countries, it is felt that the smooth and safe running of the event would be better facilitated in 2022.

Chairman of the Pro-Am Committee, Colm Hannon said: “We are at all times prioritising public health and are aware that question marks remain about events taking place for much of this year. Spectators make the Pro-Am very special and we feel by moving it to 2022, and making the decision early, gives us the best chance of delivering a world-class tournament in front of a full house next year. We would like to sincerely thank our players, volunteers, ticket cap holders and the European Tour for their continued patience and full support of the event.”

Many millions have been raised since 1990, with all proceeds in their entirety going to beneficiaries. The tournament’s success stems from the genuine interest invested by all parties including golfers, volunteers, supporters, media, public, the European Tour and the organising committee.

The Pro-Am will return for a COVID-delayed sixth staging on the 4th & 5th July 2022 and it is hoped to attract as much support as ever. Spectators can anticipate the return of international golfing superstars and well known faces from the entertainment world to participate.

The location for the 2022 Pro-Am will be The Golf Course at Adare Manor which has recently undergone extensive renovations. They are looking forward to welcoming you!

The Pro-Am Committee will release more information about the rescheduled tournament in due course. 

The tournament sold out before its initial scheduling and all caps purchased to date will be valid for the 2022 tournament, as will all on-site parking and Park & Ride passes. Spectators who wish to be refunded for their ticket caps are advised to visit www.jpmcmanusproam.com.
