Portmarnock Professional Tournament

The event was held just once, in 1910, and had total prize money of £250, provided by the Portmarnock club.

The tournament was won by James Sherlock who beat Harry Vardon 2&1 in the 36-hole final.

The prize money was reported to be the largest amount ever for a professional tournament promoted by a golf club.

[1][3] Ted Ray led the qualifying contest with a score of 154, three strokes ahead of the rest, and won a £10 prize.

One of the surprises of the day was the victory of Michael Moran over Ted Ray in the last-16 round.
