Could be big trouble there.

Sounded like it might have hit the railing.

Rorys has missed 3 great birdie putts...could have made the cut after all!

If he can keep it at -9 he’ll take it. Very dangerous finishing holes.

hopefully he gets a good lie there on 17.....

could do with a fairway

almost certain Lowrys words when he shanked that were "****ing hell jay townsend"

Townsend is a pundit.

Jay Townsend is the on-course commentator and must have been yapping as Shane was at top of this backswing...as he said "how ****ing annoying is that?"

Bad, bad mistake on the approach there again.

Stays at 9 under and haunted to still be there. Three great up and downs.

I was assuming you were another of those guys in an alternate dimension two minutes ahead of the rest of us. So I was baffled when he holed the putt

That’s the kind of thing that can get in your head especially at crucial moments. Townsend will be very relieved that he got away with that and Shane can put it behind him hopefully.

Deeper Blue

Lowry putting on a short game exhibition, there can't be many better in that department

Lowry has got some fortunate outcomes of bad shots there in the last 4 holes!

What happened there, a club short?

If Lowry is this emotionally charged on a Friday what will he be like on Sunday if in contention. I worry for him being honest

Panrich

Is he in trouble again?

fullstop

Lowry will be glad there are no holes left after this. 4 very poor approaches in a row now. Be good to get in at -9 here.

Maybe a 15-footer left for par on the last

corkboy38

once again inches away from a birdie and now left with a 10/12 footer to save par.

Would have been very fortunate for that to hit the flag and drop.

it would be amazing for him to do it but I don't see him doing it.

really hope I'm wrong.

tends to let the concentration slip

And another. Probably lucky to get in at -8 though.
