Shane Lowry Dominates Irish Open | Belfast News

Shane Lowry is flying high at the Irish Open, holding a four-shot lead after a stunning five-under 65 that puts him at sixteen-under total. With his first win in four years on the line and Ryder Cup hopes riding on this performance, Lowry delivered magic on the back nine — nailing nine straight single putts and answering every challenge, including a big eagle from rival Jacob Skov Olesen. The crowd of 17,000 is electric, and Lowry’s laser focus and joy on the course are contagious. Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy’s tournament is in freefall after a 74 and a rough front nine, now sitting in 51st. Lowry’s lead is solid, but links golf in the wind? That’s no guarantee. Can he close it out and finally claim his trophy? Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
