THE SHAMROCK OPEN
The Shamrock Open is the primary fundraising event for the Atlanta St Patrick’s Foundation which is a registered 501(c) organization based in Atlanta, Georgia. The Foundation primarily supports Ireland beneficiaries such as The St Patrick’s Parade Inc, Atlanta’s longest running parade, St Baldrick’s Foundation who fund research for Childhood cancers, and other local charities spread out through the community.
The Shamrock Open is presented by Irish Network Atlanta and follows a modified scramble format where the best drive is selected on each hole, and each player then plays their own ball in from there.
