Paul Dunne turns professional 

                                                               NEWS RELEASE

Irish golfer Paul Dunne has announced he has signed a long term, exclusive representation contract with 4SPORTS and ENTERTAINMENT, the leading Swiss sports management agency.

Paul's decision to turn professional follows an impressive amateur career recently highlighted by reaching the quarter-finals at the US Amateur, and being a member of the triumphant GB and I Walker Cup team. 

Paul played an instrumental role in the team’s memorable 7-point victory over the USA by securing a half point in his singles match on the final green, clinching victory for the home team.

Paul from Greystones, in the Republic of Ireland, is widely viewed as one of the most exciting young golfers of the modern generation. In recent months, the 22 year old has captured the hearts and imagination of the golfing world, most notably by his performance at the 144th Open Championship. Paul won the final qualifying at Woburn for a second consecutive year, and went on to St Andrews and produced two opening rounds of 69. After a 3rd round 66, he became the youngest amateur in 88 years to hold the 54 hole lead, and played in the final group on Sunday in front of a global audience.

Paul spent the last four years competing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB).
