Shane Lowry - 2019 Champion Golfer of The Year (note first post please for posting guidance)

FixdePitchmark

I genuinely never think a golf tournament is over at the 10th - as people have posted above.

But to be honest - Shane hasn't got near a fairway since I started watching.

In fairness, Sterne has played great but Shane has wilted under the pressure.

Lowey’s driving really letting him down.

Indeed, it's a pity, it seems to be his Achilles heel.

Anywhere I can watch this?

FixdePitchmark

these catch up with you - too long

FixdePitchmark

looks like a rabbit in headlights to be honest

and i am a fan.

CalamariFritti

Ye four behind now, sadly that's probably it.

Dr Devious

He really needs a 2 shot swing soon in his favor at this stage and even at that he’d be doing well to capitalize on it, much more likely to finish 4th or 5th, unfortunately.

SeeMoreBut

His driving has been poor all week and it will catch up on you.

Can't keep missing fairways and expect to hit scores.

FixdePitchmark

just out of water , i'd be happy with - considering

FixdePitchmark

great shot

10 of 2s - this week, jaysus you wouldn't want him in your club

That is savage golf.

Dr Devious

Are there any par 3 events on the European tour.

would be a good idea - if they got top pros.

CalamariFritti

Just spotted his wedge there, he playing graphite shafts is he?

Bang on. Has been poor off the tee all week. Eventually it will come back to bite you. Unfortunately today is the day.

Hopefully finishes strong and finishes off positively. Some performance on the par 3’s

FixdePitchmark

Have to say Sterne , fairly solid.

Hoof Hearted2

Shane must have got distracted with Sterneys hard questions, I wonder what he asked him, any insights First up?.

LuckyGent88

Get in there. He is hanging in.

munsterlegend

Great putt and fight back after the bogey.

TCM

His score this far today is the worst of the top 10, but great birdie there.

FixdePitchmark

jaysus - this sort of snap hook / pull is a disaster

Probably cost him event.

TCM

Only 1 in it now.

Could so easily have been 3!

FixdePitchmark

I know Shane has done his best to lose this

But was a bit crazy for regular golfers here to be calling the event over at 9/10

It is a golf tournament with wind.

Happy4all

A lot of negativity here.


Come on Shane!

LuckyGent88

Another 2 coming up??

It looks like he putts first here. Classic matchplay situation.

Sorry, thought you meant shanes own record, misread it. Not sure if that’s overall record, possibly not.

TCM

Let off the hook there.

McGinley confirmed it's a record just there.

LuckyGent88

I’m going to guess Radar thinks the gaa jerseys are rugby jerseys.

Finally a fairway!!!

FixdePitchmark

This is class - would love to see Shane win a major or even in a Ryder Cup

FixdePitchmark

Poulter having a laugh on this hole - lol

ccmp

Great entertainment. SHANE to win if he holds his nerve. Sterne rattled . The wait on 16 not helping him.

Will be interesting to see what sort of lie Sterne has here. Shane has to get it on the green as he'll be going first.

FixdePitchmark

greens look terrible - now could be just look.

There is no other was of putting it - it is a ridiculous place for a golf course and a European Tour event.

Wonder will these lads eat less meat for their carbon footprint

Mushy

Ooh sterne barely out of bunker

Just back from own game now, hoping he does it

abff

And they're level with 2 to play!

FixdePitchmark

Shane using a bit of game play standing too close

had to be told to step away

LuckyGent88

Love when people call tournaments or games over early. The amount of times it comes back to bite you is ridiculous. Iv been caught out many a time watching NFL.

Come on Shane. Let’s finish it off then

TCM

All sq. Can he push on. Sterne's head must be all over the place.

ccmp

Nervous putt but in it went

And in particular here on a golf forum

FixdePitchmark

this right to left is killing him

Felexicon

Big shot now for Shane

Mushy

Big test ahead now
