Tiger Woods is reported to be selected to help design a new links golf course at Bellarena on Northern Ireland’s north coast, as part of a broader development. Multiple outlets say the project is led by Galgorm Collection and is described as Northern Ireland’s first new championship links course in more than 100 years.
The reporting places the planned investment at around £30m (with one account giving a €35m figure) and links Woods’ involvement to his TGR Design team. One outlet frames the expected impact in tourism terms, citing comments from a former European Tour winner about how the course could strengthen Northern Ireland’s position as a golf destination.
Some coverage also adds context about Woods’ career and what the development would mean for his design work, including that it would be his first Irish course design commission and further expand his international portfolio. At least one report notes that the company has not yet confirmed the appointment, while the underlying project details are otherwise broadly consistent across sources.
