    Lowry just hooked one right off the tee at about a 45 degree angle to his left. Miles into the rough.

    It was 13...😳

    Without watching it, can someone (briefly!!) explain how he ran up a 15? Hard to envisage that one.

    It was 13, not 15. He played the wrong ball, earned himself a 2 stroke penalty.

    its not looking very very hard. but one of them with a massive number in the wrong place. then you force it , it gets worse.

    if wind gets real . as it probably will.

    this place will be a nightmare.

    I once had a 12 in captains prize. Got greedy with my 3rd from a large greensisde bunker. Ball rolled back down into the same spot. After 5 failed attempts had to go out backwards. Sunk a 10 footer for 12.

    Not sure, they didn't show it on the tv and only mentioned it in passing.

    Presumably he lost a few balls as well to end up with 13.

    Find it a bit bizarre that a player can hit the wrong ball at this level.

    What a course this is, look at that stretch 5,6 and 7, drivable par 4, tricky run-off par 3 then monster par 5 where the wind makes it reachable in two one day and a nightmare the next into the wind

    My stuff on Adverts, mostly Tesla Pre Highland Model 3

    I think he suffers from Dendrophobia. That's right, he is afraid of trees.

    All his best results are down in the desert or on mock links courses in America. Put him in the middle of trees and he loses it. Never played well at Wentworth and his Augusta and PGA form is debateable.

    All his wins on expansive courses with little or no trees.
