A Course Called Ireland

This isn't just a show about golf — it's a celebration of life going gloriously off course. In this series, Bill Murray and good friend and author, Tom Coyne play their way across some of the island's most legendary golf courses. But somewhere between the first tee and the final pint, the journey veers off course to meet the people who give it its soul, and why Bill loves his Irish heritage so much.

Each episode follows Murray and friends across some of the island's most breathtaking fairways, with every episode featuring a different golf course and guest.

The series offers an intimate portrait of an island whose stories, people and craic prove just as unforgettable as Bill Murray himself.

Golf is just the excuse.
