67 is a very good round - pity about the bogeys, but he did well. In a geat position.

I think being in the second last group tomorrow might help him. If he was in the last group he might get a touch of the paul dunne's.

+1 And his playing partner Steven Bowditch (OWGR rank 63) won't get much attention from the local crowd or on TV so Shane will be under much less pressure which is a good thing.

Poulter and Stenson are in the 3rd group which will also draw some attention away from him so let's hope for a good 4th round.

I think he is better off in this pairing as well, but if he is in contention, the TV cameras will be on him anyway.

Let's hope so, but he's likely to have a smaller gallery, which would presumably make it slightly less pressurised.

Anyone know what channel this will be on?

That isn't late in Ohio.

I always get the impression when watching Lowry is that he is one of us out there competing against the best. Really hope he does the business tonight.

What time is he starting? Must be soon, if not just started.

Par on 3, was putting from just off green for birdie.

Mushy

Par on 4 again. Ticking along nicely, be great if he got another to start asking questions of those ahead

Mushy

Another par on 5, had left himself some work though so nice to get it.

Following the leaderboard, Shane now joint second with Rose who appears to have bogeyed the fourth

Was just going to say. Furyk not racing ahead, so hope Shane pushes on.

I'm following that leaderboard, and if it looks like he's in the hunt/goes close to the lead, I'm out to the local who will have it on

Mushy

Furyk bogey

Spurion

Furyk bogies the 5th. Lowry one behind now.
