The Irish Open, set to take place at Trump International Golf Links & Hotel in Doonbeg from September 9-13, will feature a star-studded field. Ryder Cup stalwarts including Robert Mac Intyre, Patrick Reed, Francesco Molinari, and Sepp Straka are confirmed participants.

They will join defending champion Rory McIlroy and two-time major winner Jon Rahm, who are considered the headline attractions. The event also boasts strong home representation with Shane Lowry and Pádraig Harrington, alongside international talent like Luke Donald, Tyrrell Hatton, and the Hojgaard brothers. American golfer Patrick Reed, the current Race to Dubai leader and a two-time DP World Tour winner this year, adds further significant appeal to the tournament.

Robert Mac Intyre, ranked 17th in the world, will make his return to competition after a break. The Irish Open's timing, one week before the PGA Championship at Wentworth, makes it a crucial event for players preparing for subsequent tournaments. It is also anticipated that US President Donald Trump may attend the event during his visit to Ireland.
