Damien McGrane took time out from European Tour duties to grab another win on the PGA in Ireland circuit at the Royal Curragh Pro-Am on Thursday, 16 July 2015 and also set a new course record.

The former Headfort professional fired a brilliant nine under par 63 to pip current Headfort professional, Brendan McGovern, by a single shot at Royal Curragh.

"The course was in great condition and had improved greatly in the past 12 months. I was hitting a lot of wedges into the greens and getting them to within 10-15 feet so I was giving myself plenty of chances."

McGrane had a bogey free nine birdie round. The 44-year old, bagged birdies at the 1st, 5th, 7th and 9th to be out in four under 33. He birdied the 10th and then rattled off a quartet of birdies at the 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th as he came home in a blistering five under 30.
