Watched the day 3 highlights and not one shot from Lowry who had the lowest score of the day
Was he the best round yesterday? Could have a couple more birdies. Missed two from around 6ft but that par putt was excellent.
Will need a fantastic round to shoot a few under and hope that Berger stumbles. Have a feeling Berger will do enough to steadily close this out like Niemann.
At least we should see most of Lowry's play today and Rai not taking a week to finish a hole.
Out in the last group tonight, huge chance he's due a win in fairness will need to start fast.
Great putt on the first to pull one back.
Great start, game on now.
best round today was a 5 under 65
Shane’s best was a 67
if he gets to 9th in 3 under Berger MIGHT feel a pinch
That is about as much of a dream start as Lowry could have wished for. Only one back after four.
Berger has had some collapse so far, in the bunker from the tee now. Shane in the first cut, went over the bunker
Berger isn't gone yet, loads of golf to play but Lowry could never imagine being tied after 5.
Some collapse from berger.
Sudden change for Berger anyway
Wow what a bunker shot
Disappointing not to take the lead there
Gonna be some shootout on the back nine. Lowry may just need that putter to heat up a touch.
All aspects of his game look to be in great order except for short to mid-range putting -he has holed several long ones but he has missed half a dozen from 5 to 9 ft. as well as 4 between 10 and 12.
Fix that and he could be a factor at the Masters.
Could never see Shane winning the Masters.
just not good enough with putter
...then again Sergio won it!
Lowry leads
Nice to get the line from Berger there
Two shot lead now, and playing beautifully.
Wouldn't exactly call Hidecki or Adam Scott world class putters either...
He is a great man to chase a chance when it open up.
Second chip in from Berger.
Berger can't keep hoping for them, but seriously pressure now
Berger not giving up easy and Straka still there. I wonder will we see some splashdowns before this finishes.
Berger should buy a lottery ticket. He could easily have ended up in the water and walks off with a birdie
Straka ( who ? ) ...slots from 226 inches to joint lead !! White knuckle finish and possible play-off looming.
Come on get this finished
Fucked over by that rain
Rain might just ruin him on 18th
Second favourite now
That looked a very nervy drive by Shane...got away with it by the looks of things
