I wish to express my condolences to the O'Connor family following the sad passing of Christy O'Connor Jnr. while on a family holiday in Tenerife recently. I had the pleasure of being within 50 yards of Christy O'Connor Jnr. when he played that famous shot at the Belfry, which is recognised as one of the best golfing shots ever played on any golf course. Subsequently, I met his opponent, Fred Couples, who was No. 1 in the world at the time. The Cathaoirleach is a golfer himself.
