The K Club has been announced as the venue for the 2026 Women's Irish Open, with the event taking place at the end of August.
After being staged at Carton House for the last two years and Dromoland Castle before that, the Ladies European Tour have now confirmed the Palmer South Course at the Co Kildare venue will host the tournament from 27-30 August.
The return to a late August date will no doubt act a perfect warm-up for those players who make the Solheim Cup team, with the match against the USA taking place in the Netherlands from the 11-13 September.
Looking ahead to the KPMG Women's Irish Open, the K Club director MJ Fetherston said: "We are delighted to announce the KPMG Women's Irish Open is coming to The K Club in 2026. This is a tournament we want to support and elevate. There is so much brilliant talent in women’s golf. We have been supporting Leona Maguire for the past few years and this is a terrific development on that.
"The Palmer South course has been given a lot of love and energy over the past few years. We are excited to bring tournament golf back to this challenging course. Our family and the whole team at the resort want to make this the best Women’s Irish Open yet."
