Relentlessly steady from Lowry and made it so hard for Fleetwood to chase him down. Handled the conditions and the pressure really well and richly deserves to win


Eh?

Did Shane make Fleetwood miss just about every fairway and leave 90% of his putts short? Fleetwood has been dreadful today.

Some cringeworthy scores today, too much time spent in the US of A playing in perfect conditions. Get back over onto the European Tour and battle in all conditions.

For me, this is how golf should be.
Difficult course, penal rough and changeable weather. The winner can't be a fluke in these conditions.
It beats the darts they play in America, all day long.
Loving it .................. proper golf.

Yep - lots of big scores today and it’s clear the conditions have been tough for the last 4 hours , this is great golf ,Fleetwood has given it a go but just prob gone at it too hard but most of the top 20 are over par today apart from the guys who went out early

Dear Mr. McGinley,

Most of us with an IQ in double figures know that Ireland is an island, and have better recall than the average goldfish. Any chance you could come up with something useful in the commentary rather than continually reminding us that the golf course is situated on a large lump of rock surrounded by water?

Thanks.

Lowry has been awesome, he gave the opposition absolutely nothing to feed off all day.
He just ground them all out of contention.
His mental strength is immense.

PS - can you leave the Sky commentary box to concentrate on the Seniors tour just like Monty ( and take Reilly with you )


Have a feeling The Harbour bar is going to be a bit busy tonight and be a bit messy

Brilliant from Lowry - today may not have had the fireworks of yesterday but it was just as good - brilliant 🇮🇪
