As seems to be the case at every Irish Open, the weather is playing havoc. With the third round being suspended at three separate occasions on Saturday, the weather is at it again during the final round.
Naturally, this means that the coverage has some holes to fill. For Sky Sports, that meant bringing on Taoiseach and 13-handicapper Enda Kenny.
Kenny has been getting around this week, after his selfie with Connacht coach Pat Lam:

Kenny's golfing punditry did not go well. Kenny eventually got onto the topic of the Ryder Cup - and referred to the mental strength needed in the clash between Britain and the States.

That's Britain, and not even Ireland. Never mind the rest of the continent - it's all down to Danny Willett and the boys over the Irish sea.
Naturally, people were not pleased with Enda's appearance on their TV screens:
