Dungannon Golf Club was founded in 1890. Shortly afterwards with eight others, it founded the Golfing Union of Ireland. The club moved to its present location in 1954. In 1964 the course was extended to 18 holes. The current clubhouse was opened by Darren Clarke in 2000. In 2019 the Dungannon Golf Club won the award for the the Best Golf Club in Northern Ireland.
From humble beginnings, the course has developed into one of the best courses in Tyrone and Mid-Ulster with stunning views across the undulating countryside of Tyrone.
The 18 hole Par 72 course had an extensive upgrade in 2007 directed by Patrick Merrigan and Darren Clarke and measures 5871 yards for Men and 5422 yards for Ladies.
Substantial improvements to the course have been made recently upgrading bunkering. Further improvements are planned.

Darren is one of the most recognisable faces in sport. He has won multiple tournaments worldwide. His biggest victory came when he won the 2011 Open Championship at Royal St George’s. Darren played in six Ryder Cup matches and also was the Captain in 2016. In 2022 he won The Senior Open.
