No real chance of birdie on 17, still hoping on 18 but also for the others not to make birdies, big ask

It is now really with a great putt from Howell there.He definitely needs the bird.

Pity on 18. Still a T3 place finish which should make him approx 200,000

And that's how it finishes up for him - pity about silly dropped shots in the closing holes, but a good week - well done, Shane!

Yes, an excellent week's work. But I'd say he's kicking himself over that missed tiddler on the 15th.

sydneybound

He'll be kicking himself about that stupid drop shot on 15 (I think), the short putt. He seemed very happy in the 18th green, all in all good week.

Speak Now

Back up to to 71st in the world rankings, just inside top 30 in race to Dubai.

I love his latest put down of a twit on twitter giving him abuse

"Ball bag"

Simple, to the point, and golf related

I have no idea why you would follow him only to take the mickey out of him, utterly pointless

Great week from Shane and all set to defend in Portugal after a week off next week. Hopefully he is peeking in time for the big money events and can make the Top 50 before the year is out! Be great to see him at the masters!

ForeRight

Poor Shane isn't happy about him and his mates getting refused from the shelbourne hotel when out for a few drinks.

Straight onto his twitter account to call the place a kip.

FixdePitchmark

Don't worry Shane! - there is always a bloke who comes home with more money than the rest of us at Christmas and tries to bring us into a bar, that we all feel awkward and are surrounded by gangsters in suits.

There are 100s of real bars around there you would have been grand in, in your Christmas outfits. :P

BTW - when you get to Augusta ( I know you will) - see how you get on trying to get your mates in

abff

You gotta love the guy! Still a big kid at heart.

Looks like Shane is going to miss the cut by 1 shot for the second week in a row. Disappointing start to the season. Let's hope things pick up from here.

sydneybound

Feel sorry for the lad, second week running missing the cut by 1 single shot. I'm sure he'll be grand this season, its not even February yet.

Then again he is a millionaire in the sunhine of Dubai so maybe I shouldn't feel too sorry for him!

I see he is playing galway bay at the moment with some mates.

What is it with Shane and airlines losing his clubs!? Must be infuriating for him.

I wonder has he tried putting one of these on the bag:
The county colours have been keeping Irish bags safe all over the world for decades...






My own brother flew off to NZ this morning, I was a bit concerned about him until I seen the Mayo headband tied around the bag....he'll be grand.

FixdePitchmark

Yes there was 1000s of those Mayo headbands on the ground in pubs around Drumcondra last September.

Lowry is so small-time.
What other pro golfer would mention the price of their flight in a tweet.

Well if you paid 4k for a flight and they lose your luggage you have a right to be pissed. I'd love to know where all these lost clubs go to, someone working for BA probably has a shed full of club.

Maybe the small timer is on the other end of the quote! Has to be a worry if flying half-way across the world and clubs go A.W.O.L. before the tourney.
