Hi Everyone,

As the proud new owner of Talk Golf Ireland, I wanted to introduce myself to you all.

My name is Sharon Smurfit, and I’m incredibly excited to be taking the reins of this long standing newspaper and adding this publication to my golfing community. I am deeply passionate about golf and the golfer within their golf club environment.

I’m looking forward to building on the strong foundation that Talk Golf Ireland has established over the years.

For those who don’t know me, I’ve spent much of my life immersed in the world of golf—both on and off the course. For many years I worked as Director of Golf in The K Club and in the last few years have established my own golf consultancy company. I am delighted to be able to offer my expertise and give guidance to golf clubs within Ireland and abroad. I have had the privilege of working with and meeting some amazing people over the years.

When I set up my own website early 2024, I wanted to create an area where the golfer could go to find current golf events, job vacancies, membership offers and much more and also share my industry knowledge to golf clubs.

Last year I had the opportunity to purchase Talk Golf Ireland and I felt this would be the ideal avenue where clubs and golfers can highlight their achievements to their fellow golfer. This year, we will be launching a brand new monthly digital newspaper, along with 4 printed editions throughout the year. Each printed issue will be delivered directly to every golf club in Ireland. Best of all, both our digital and print content will be completely free for all readers.

All content from both our digital and print platforms will also be featured on our newly designed website, which will include even more news, features, and information for golf enthusiasts across Ireland. Our website (www.talkgolfireland.com) is due to go live in the next few weeks.

I’d love for you to be part of this new journey too! Share with us, your club news, updates, or upcoming events—or simply let your club committee or Captains know they can email us. It’s a great way for you, your club, or fellow members to be featured. Our email is hello@talkgolfireland.com​

Here’s to a great golf season,

Warmest Regards,
​Sharon Smurfit​
