Leona Maguire has to bide her time to get on to K Club range; Alex Maguire’s dream season rolls on
“I think Dave McNeilly did a great job. I’ve got to say I was so impressed with Dave McNeilly. It was great that he let Tom play his game. So many caddies would have gone, ‘hit an iron off the last’ and start getting in his head.
Harrington has been paired with McKibbin and American Tom Hoge for the opening two rounds and remarked: “Looking from the outside, if there’s anything Tom has to deal with himself, it’s going to be expectations. We all say he’s great. We all love the way he hits it. But unfortunately as good a player as you can be in golf, there’s a lot of things that go into every week winning, and you need the right breaks.
Oh, and for good measure, Maguire is also the touring professional for none other than The K Club, as could be seen on the bag carried by her father/caddie-for-the-day Declan.Except, the security man went on a solo power play and stopped the poster girl of Irish women’s golf because a number – 2, apparently – was missing from the official pass full of access numbers she had around her neck.
Only one winner here. Maguire, who had stayed politely quiet through it all, simply moved on to take her rightful place on the range and went on to play with amateur partners on the BMW team, Yvonne Morrison, Yvonne Moore and Marion Keary.
