The hotel complex also contains two golf courses, both designed by Arnold Palmer. The Palmer Course was the venue for the Ryder Cup in 2006, the first time the event had been staged in Ireland. The course also hosted the Smurfit European Open on the European Tour from 1995 to 2003 and again in 2005, with that tournament being played on the resort's "inland links" K Club Course in 2004, 2006, and 2007. The Palmer Course hosted the Irish Open in 2016, won by Rory McIlroy.
