Notre Dame will have a representative overseas during the upcoming golf season. Palmer Jackson, perhaps the best golfer in Irish history, has earned conditional status for the 2025 DP World Tour, also known as the European Tour.
Jackson finished this year’s DP World Tour Qualifying School in a tie for 30th by shooting a 16-under-par 412 over six rounds. That left him two strokes short of earning full-time status for the DP World Tour. So he will spend most of this upcoming season on the Challenge Tour, the European developmental tour for the DP World Tour.
This achievement comes five months after Jackson placed eighth at the national championship, the best finish ever for an Irish golfer at that event. While it already was obvious his career would go beyond his time with the Irish, that moment for him erased any lingering doubts one might have had.
Also, just because, here’s a putting lesson from the man himself:
Congratulations to Jackson, and we wish him well as a professional golfer.
