Irish Open sheduled to return to links at County Louth in 2009
![[mail]](rsc/img/envelope.gif){kind=small}
The Irish Open, one of the most enduring and prestigious championships on The European Tour International Schedule, will return to the classic links of 
County Louth Golf Club, Baltray, from May 14-17 this year.
The official announcement of 3 as the major new title sponsor for The Irish Open is expected to be made before the end of the month.
Designed in 1938 by Tom Simpson, the championship links at County Louth has consistently featured in golfing publications as one of Ireland's 'hidden gems' and earned rave reviews when The Irish Open was played over its sumptuous links for the only time in 2004.
On that occasion, Australia's Brett Rumford held off a strong challenge from Padraig Harrington who, as history has shown, went on to win his national title three years later on his way to capturing the first of three Major Championships in the space of 13 months.
