Big Break is a programme that aired in the US on The Golf Channel, a sort of The Apprentice meets golf. This year Big Break, was filmed at The K Club where a group of 12 golfers compete through different golf skill tests, a golfer gets knocked out after each round and a finale 18 holes of match-play. Tommy “two guns” Gainey won Big Break a few years ago and earned over 2 million dollars last year on Tour after his win allowed him two invites out on Tour. This years winner of Big Break gets an invite to play in The Irish Open and The Moroccan Open and $50,000 plus a number of other sponsorship deals.
Mark Murphy from Waterville is this years Big Break Champion and has been a long-time friend of ForeGolf, in fact he’s been coming to see us since the early days back in 2000 when the shop was in Naas. Mark, since turning pro has tried his hand at many tournaments both in Europe and over in the US where he now lives. He plays with ForeGolf clubs that have special lucky shamrocks on the heads.
Well done Murph, we’re delighted that those clubs did the job and we look forward to seeing you out on Tour next year.
