Golf Sixes with Rory - at the DDF Irish Open

Portstewart's 6th green

Now this is a rather special idea for all Irish golfers, young and old. How would you like to win a six-hole, inside-the-ropes experience with Rory McIlroy at the 2017 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open, hosted by the Rory Foundation at Portstewart Golf Club?

The Dubai Duty Free Irish Open hosted by the Rory Foundation is teaming up with VOX Golf and Rory McIlroy to offer golfers a truly unique experience ahead of the prestigious Rolex Series event, which takes place from July 6-9.

“Golf Sixes with Rory” is a six-hole competition launching on Friday June 2 throughout the island of Ireland, with the qualifying events running until Wednesday June 28.

The lucky winners of a six-hole competition, throughout the island of Ireland, will walk six holes inside the ropes with Rory McIlroy during this year’s tournament.

More details can be found at http://www.dubaidutyfreeirishopen.com/competition/.

To compete, download the VoxGolf app, select your course and enter the “Golf Sixes with Rory” competition by playing any run of six holes – it must be the first six, middle six or final six holes of any course of your choice.

Then after you have played your six holes, simply submit your score and view a live leaderboard.

The best six scores from each course will qualify into a draw to win a special six-hole walk inside the ropes with Rory during the opening two rounds of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.
