The Northern Ireland Masters is a professional golf tournament that was played at Clandeboye Golf Club in Newtownards, Northern Ireland. It was originally played as a one-off event on the Challenge Tour in September 2003.[1] Darren Clarke won the inaugural event by two shots ahead of Stuart Little.
The event returned in 2021 as part of the PGA EuroPro Tour's schedule. It was hosted by recent first-time European Tour winner Jonathan Caldwell.[2] The tournament was played again in 2022 on the PGA EuroPro Tour.[3]
In 2023, the tournament moved onto the Clutch Pro Tour, as the PGA EuroPro Tour had ceased operation at the end of 2022.[4]
