Shane Lowry’s Irish goodbye: Lowry came up just short of Straka at Philly Cricket Club and then left without doing media to join a growing list of golfers who have done the same in the past year that includes Rory McIlroy (2024 U.S. Open) and Collin Morikawa (2025 Arnold Palmer Invitational).

Rory McIlroy has been taking note of fellow Irishman Shane Lowry's recent form entering the year's second major championship.

Justin Thomas expressed his gratitude to Shane Lowry after a sudden increase of £302,000 ($400,000) in his prize money at the Truist Championship. The American golfer, who had been criticised by commentator Jim Nantz, finished tied for second place, but just before his final putt, he was in solo third.
