This time two weeks we’ll all be hoping to catch the second-hand smoke of a bona-fide sporting legend at Royal County Down during the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.
That’s right, Miguel Angel Jimenez will be among the field at this month’s event along with top players such as Ernie Els, Martin Kaymer, and José Maria Olazábal.
The Spaniard is among the final entry list for the event which gets underway later this month. There will be a strong Irish contingent, too, with Rory McIlroy playing his home course along with Darren Clarke, Padraig Harrington and Graeme McDowell.
