The 2012 edition of Ladies Irish Open is to be held at Killeen Castle. The event will be held from the 3rd to the 5th of August.
Ladies Irish Open is one of the most popular events on the Ladies European Tour’s calendar. Many people think that it is the venue of the event that attracts many people. Indeed, Killeen Castle is one of the most scenic golf courses in the world.
Talking about the venue, the Executive Director of the Ladies European Tour, Alexandra Armas said, “The Jack Nicklaus Signature Course at Killeen Castle is one of the finest courses on the European Tour and I want to thank Killeen Castle for their continued
support for the Ladies Irish Open”.

Many players incorporate the event in their schedule because of the increased publicity and attached sponsorships that the event now attracts.
Many experts think that the Ladies Irish Open has achieved its current status because of its venue. They point out the fact that the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course at Killeen Castle plays host to another very prestigious and popular golf event, the Solheim
Cup.
This allure of watching the best female golfers in the world on one of the most prestigious golf courses in Europe is enough to attract a large crowd.
There is another group that says that this contention has lost its weight. In their favour, they highlight the stats of Ladies Irish Open as one of the best known golf tournaments in Europe.
Certainly the number and caliber of the players who make themselves available for the event every year speaks volumes about this argument.
