Here’s your chance to spend the day with Major winner Darren Clarke on his home course. Your Golf Travel is giving golfers the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play golf with the 2011 Open champion at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.

The golf travel company has teamed up with Tourism Ireland to offer 12 lucky competition winners the trip. As well as playing 18 holes at last year’s Irish Open venue, winners will have the chance to pit their wits against the European Tour legend in a challenge hole contest on the course. You’ll then unwind in the company of Clarke at the nearby Bushmills Inn with an evening’s entertainment including a whiskey tasting, dinner of traditional Irish stew and Ireland’s world-famous Guinness.

Overnight accommodation, return flights to Belfast and transfers are also included in the prize, with winners flying out to Northern Ireland from June 24-25. Set on the breathtaking Causeway Coast, Royal Portrush is one of the top courses in the world.

Clarke said: “We have some fantastic courses in Northern Ireland and I’ll never tire of coming home to play golf at Royal Portrush. It will be my pleasure to welcome the competition winners next month for what promises to be a great day’s golf. The course here is as good as people say it is and, on a nice day, there’s nowhere I’d rather be.”

Andrew Harding, co-founder of Your Golf Travel, said: “Darren’s victory in The Open two years ago will live long in the memories of golf fans all around the world. Everyone in the game knows how much he loves playing in Northern Ireland and at Royal Portrush.

“He lives just down the road from there and the chance to spend a day in his company, then enjoy a few pints of Guinness with him afterwards is something money can’t buy. It should be a lot of fun!”

Clarke became Your Golf Travel’s new global ambassador at the end of last year and has fronted a major national advertising campaign for the company across the Sky TV network since January. Your Golf Travel offers golf holidays and breaks to more than 3,000 destinations worldwide through its website and brochure.
