President of Castletown Golf Club Jack Yardley believes its new owner has what it takes to restore the links to its former glory.
At the club's recent annual general meerting in the hotel adjoining the course, Phillip Vermeulen told members he wanted to develop the club, so it was once again one of the top 50 in the British Isles.
Mr Yardley says Mr Vermeulen wants to invest in the club in a major way:
Hockey: Ladies Masters reach England Hockey Semi-Finals
Over 45s side progress past Sheffield
Commonwealth Games 2026: Design chosen for Isle of Man baton
Lesley Sleight's artwork will represent the Island in Glasgow
Rugby: Bevan Rodd included in England's final 2026 Six Nations squad

Snooker: Seventh straight win for Legion
