Rory McIlroy, Darren Clarke and now Keegan Bradley - the Irish Golfing Superpower continues.

Not "Bandwagon" jumping at all then...

Pat Bradley's Grandparents were Irish - if you look back that far most US players will have an Irish ancestor somewhere...

Even if they're Chinese...

 

[CMAC]

agreed, if you go back far enough no white Americans are Americans if you get my meaning

 

[mally]

probably end up on comedy daves tedious link

Guys - hence my tongue in cheek wink at the start.

I know virtually all american ancestors are descended from Irish but it only more of a p*** take set the cat amongst the pigeons type of post.

It was a great win from a talented American who flew under the radar - more power to him !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[brendy]

Come on now, was that ever in doubt?
I did also read that he played on the Hooters Tour in America, now that would be interesting!

 

[davykyle]

Are there any perks from playing the Hooters Tour

 

[brendy]

I could think of one or two.

 

[Ethan]

Keegan Bradley? - I bet he has some Irish ancestors.

Keegan - Irish (aka Gaelic) for small flame
Bradley - English version of O'Brallachan

I am counting that as another Irish win!

 

[DCB]

C'mon now, there are more Irish people in some US cities that there are on the whole of the island

Did you know, even Barack Obama has irish blood, no lie. 1/4 irish.
I think he should change his surname slightly to O'Bama.
