Tim Rice crowned Elavon Order of Merit champion

Chief Executive Officer at Elavon Declan Lynch was thrilled with how the season unfolded and felt that Rice was a more than worthy winner.

“Elavon is delighted to sponsor the PGA Ireland Circuit, it’s great to see the level of support across the country at all the events including the Pro-Ams,” he said. “Huge congratulations to Tim Rice for his fantastic win, showing such consistency over the season, resulting in him being crowned Order of Merit champion. The season has been a great success for many, both professional and amateur who turn out to play our amazing courses around the country.”

PGA Ireland Regional Manager Conor Dillon also paid tribute to the Elavon support and to Rice for his achievement.

“I’d like to thank Elavon for making this one of the most successful seasons in many years,” Dillon said. “We’ve had record participation from both professionals and amateurs all over the country, and we visited some of the top courses in the country which meant that players got to experience top-class playing conditions and increased exposure for all of the golf courses involved.

“Tim was outstanding all season. His consistency was incredible, but the standard across the board was so high, and that’s great for the region and also great for the sponsors.

“Elavon have been amazing supporters, and we’re absolutely delighted to have them on board.”
