Ireland has been chosen to host the Ryder Cup in 2027 at Adare Manor in County Limerick. Significant State investment is required in this regard over a number of years in respect of fees to Ryder Cup Europe, support for other PGA European Tour events in Ireland, marketing fees and the provision of necessary public services for the large crowds that will attend the event.
No State funding has been pledged to the person in question in this regard.
