Golf Show Features Donegal and Derry

A popular golf and travel TV series, Golfing the World, showcased Derry and Donegal to golfers across the United States. A special episode called Golfing the World: Derry City, supported by Tourism Ireland, aired to millions of viewers on NBC Sports Boston.

Viewers saw the show’s presenter Hannah Leiner playing some of our top golf courses, including Royal Portrush. She enjoyed a guided tour of Derry-Londonderry and experienced the sights and sounds of the City of Derry Jazz Festival. Using the city as a base, Hannah also visited some golf courses in Donegal, including North West Golf Club, Portsalon and Ballyliffin.
