Course Record
In June 2004 Donegal Golf Club had the honour of hosting the the Irish Amateur Close Championhip. This is the priemier amateur golf event in the country and is confined to Irish amateurs.
A testament to the challenge of Donegal Golf Club, after two qualifying medal rounds Gareth Maybin of Ballclare Golf Club led on one under par, with rounds of 72-73, for a total of 145. Playing with Michael McGeady of North -West on Sunday 13th of June, Noel Fox of Portmarnock, one of Ireland's leading amateurs carded the only sub-70 round (a superb 69) to finish on level par 146 for the two rounds.
The 64 leading qualifiers took part in a matchplay event and the European Amateur Champion, Brian McElhinney (North-West Golf Club) made it through to the final and emerged victorious by one hole. Noel Fox was surprisingly beaten 7/6 in the third round by Alistair McKinley of Shandon Park Golf Club.
Noel Fox’s 69 in the second qualifying round of the Irish Close Championship stands today as the course record for Donegal Golf Club and is there to be beaten.
