I’m actually struggling to understand the article because the Ulster Flag is used to represent Northern Ireland in pretty much every kind of context. Whether or not Northern Ireland is technically a country or province is irrelevant and just semantics.

If you look at golf Rory McIlroy’s name appears beside the Ulster Flag. In the commonwealth games it’s the same.

...except within Northern Ireland itself :)

The Ulster Flag? The yellow and red one?
Sorry I meant the Ulster Banner. Should have checked the name referenced. I mentally just know this as 'The Northern Ireland Flag'.
