Royal County Down, which is less than an hour from McIlroy’s home town of Hollywood, previously hosted the tournament in 2015, when it was won by Soren Kjeldsen.
McIlroy will be joined in the field by Shane Lowry, who has also confirmed the tournament on his 2024 autumn schedule.

“I’m incredibly excited to have the opportunity play in this year’s Irish Open at a venue so close to home.”
