Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland will stage the Amateur Championship for the fourth occasion in 2027.

The 132nd Amateur Championship will take place between 14-19 June. Qualifying will be held on the Dunluce and Valley links with the tournament to be played at Dunluce.

The venue has staged the event three times already with Bradley Neil winning the most recent tournament held there in 2014.

American Ethan Fang won the 130th Amateur Championship at Royal St George’s and Royal Cinque Ports in Deal, England last year, defeating Gavin Tiernan in a one-hole victory in the final.

Royal Portrush hosted the 2025 Open when Scottie Scheffler secured the title.

This year’s Amateur will take place at Royal Liverpool in Hoylake.

Considered one of the world’s most prestigious competitions outside the professional game, five-time European Tour winner and Northern Irishman Michael Hoey won the tournament in Prestwick in 2001.

In the last 10 years, the event has been held at Irish courses Ballyliffin in 2024, and Portmarnock in 2019.
