The 22-year-old Northern Irishman is represented by International Sports Management but will continue to play for Ireland in the World Amateur Team Championships, Home Internationals and Eisenhower Trophy, while also going to European Tour Qualifying School.

Dunbar won the St Andrews Links Trophy in 2009 and claimed two points out of three in Great Britain & Ireland’s Walker Cup victory in 2011.

Dunbar became only the third player from Northern Ireland to win the Amateur Championship when he triumphed at Royal Troon.
