Paul Dunne is the focus of the sporting world today as the Greystones amateur looks to make history at The Open Championship

Dunne might not be able to take home the winners’ cheque if he carries on his sensational form and takes victory at St Andrew’s, but in addition to the Claret Jug, we will be more than happy to induct him into SportsJOE’s Dunne Hall of Fame.

The what, you ask? Let us introduce you to its current members…

Former WBA super bantamweight champion with a 28-2 professional record? Yeah, that’ll do nicely.

Liam

The first Republic of Ireland player to win the European Cup, Tony also won two league titles during a 13-year spell at Manchester United. The former Shels full-back played 33 times for Ireland.
