Join us as we get to know Devin Irish, Assistant Golf Professional at Egypt Valley, a little better!

Where does your passion for the sport of golf come from?

The passion for the game of golf came from playing golf with my father growing up. When I got older, that passion transformed in to wanting to know the golf swing in and out to help other golfers achieve their goals.

Share a bit about your Egypt Valley journey!

I have been at Egypt Valley since January of this year; I will have to say it took some getting used to with Michigan winters (which bring a little more snow than back at home). I heard about the position through the PGA job board and did research on the club. It seemed like a wonderful opportunity to advance my career!

What’s the best part of being part of the EVCC team?

The best part about being part of the EVCC team is how friendly the entire staff is and how welcoming the membership has been, as well. From the first week, the staff have made me feel welcome like a family and I can't wait for many more years here.

What’s your favorite golf highlight/memory at Egypt Valley?

I have only been on the Ridge Course once, so not too many fond memories yet. I will have to say the greens are tricky out here and they left me second guessing every putt I had.

When you're not at the club, what activities are you most likely found enjoying?

When I'm not at the club, I enjoy spending time with my friends and exploring more of Michigan, since I moved up here in January. I look forward to going up North in the summer and doing some sightseeing.

What’s something people would be surprised to learn about you?

I didn't really catch the golf bug until I was in college.
