The 2nd Annual Social Media Links Challenge will take in 3 of the finest links courses in Ireland over 3 days when it tees off in mid August during the week of The PGA Championship. County Sligo Golf Club, Carne Golf Links & Enniscrone Golf Club are the respective venues from Friday 14th to Sunday 16th August 2015.
The First Day’s play will be hosted at West of Ireland Amateur Open venue, County Sligo Golf Club, on Friday 14th August 2015. This world renowned course will test each and every player as they strive to get into the leading groups from Day 1.
Day 2 on Saturday 15th August will take in the awesome Carne Golf Links in Belmullet, Co Mayo. This is one of the more remote courses in Ireland but as a result of that it has one of the most amazing locations for a golf course anywhere in the World.

This outstanding links course will provide a fitting finale to 3 days of sublime links golf on the West Coast of Ireland. The winning team this week will certainly deserve their prize!
