Shane Lowry - 2019 Champion Golfer of The Year (note first post please for posting guidance)

Trampas

With Shane going to be starting his first full year on the tour what does he need to do to make him a better golfer?

I see he is 121st in scrambling so I guess his short game needs a touch up.

I say fitness is a key also.

Thankfully he has exemptions which should take some pressure of his game to allow his improve areas of his game he feels need strengthening.

MOD EDIT: Zero discussions around Shane's weight or body shape, any such posts will result in warnings, thank you

Id doubt he won that much Charlie, sounds more like race to Dubai points.
For example last week was $7million prize fund but 10million race to Dubai points.

He won €77K with his 34th today.

Again that sounds likd Dubai points. He won $66k according to HSBC breakdown which is less in Euro of course.

Where is the prize money listed? You can normally see it listed on europeantour.com if you click on 'Ticket and Event Info' but they seem to have been very shy about the money this week, it's not listed on the WGC results posted on pgatour.com tonight either

There's a full list here, only $1K less than what i thought.

Its bad when the official site cant get it right, they have the points he won the last 2 events marked as Euro. You'd think they'd figure out a simple way to show both.

No wonder people like me can't figure it out - that's poor from the European tour.

If he doesn't win this week, it's won't be from the lack of protein

Probably picked it up by mistake!

Just switched on Sky. Shane started with a bogey follwed by a double bogey. C'mon lad.....forget the breakfasts!

Speak Now

+3 after 4 on a course that's a birdie fest. Bogeyed both par 5's so far. Already 5 and 6 shots behind his playing partners! Hope its not a repeat of last weeks opening round.

benny79

jesus christ what's going on with him! He must have a mental block of getting into the top 50!

vienne86

Aaaaaargh.....he has such a wonderful chance this week....what has got in to him?

vienne86

Picked up one birdie. Now + 2 for the first 9. Needs to get going with birdies....everyone else seems to be doing it.

Speak Now

3 birdies in a row so back to par after 11, -7 leads.

abff

Now 4 birdies in a row and 1 under for the round. Great recovery by Shane.

It's a birdie fest there today. He is a long way behind, but yes, fair play for hauling himself back. Mechanic going well, so hopefully some of that will rub off on Shane.

markthespark77

5 birdies in a row. -2 now.

Speak Now

5 in a row, sweet!

vienne86

Sky just showed everyone EXCEPT Shane on the 5th.....mechanic, fair enough, but Donald on +2! ......and then they show his tee shot on the next, but it seems to have disappeared!!!

bigtimecharlie

And now live coverage of him.

Looking good.

charlieIRL

he's on some roll now!!

He's gone into protein mode! Atta lad Shane
