Golf's rich history is on full display at the picturesque Royal Portrush — Golfweek's No. 2 rated course in all of Ireland and Northern Ireland.

When the Royal Portrush Golf Club was founded, it was called simply “the Country Club.” Starting in 1892, the club was renamed “the Royal Country Club,” and in 1895, it became the “Royal Portrush Country Club.” The changing names have to do with the British royal family, and the history of royal golf clubs.
