Limerick man wins world pitch and putt title

Kieran Earls of Bruff Pitch and Putt Club.

LIMERICK’S Kieran Earls emerged a winner on the World Pitch and Putt Tour in Spain over the May Bank Holiday Weekend.

The 31 year-old, who is a member of the Bruff Pitch and Putt club, finished on 21 under par for the 54-hole tournament at Lleida, the capital city of its namesake province in Catalonia. 

He carded rounds of 48 (-6), 47 (-7) and 46 (-8) to emerge a comfortable winner of the tournament. Remarkably, Earls didn’t drop a single shot across his three rounds. 

The County Limerick man won the Irish national matchplay championship in 2020 and the Munster Matchplay championship last year.
