Lowry -4 (71)
Shane Lowry holed out from the rough for an eagle two at the 13th, but the rest was a mixed bag and he is eight adrift of Joakim Lagergren:
“It’s just one of those days. I feel like I hit the ball really well obviously off the tee. Then it was just weird, I don’t know, my iron play was a little poor. Then I was sloppy and I missed the green. I missed a couple early on at the start. I missed a couple of greens on the wrong side, and before you know it, you’re a couple over and you’re fighting.
“I’m proud of the way I battled back going into the back nine. The last place you want to be is 1-under par for the tournament playing 16, 17, 18 where the trouble is waiting. So I felt like I did very well to get my round back together.
“Yeah, it’s kind of a what could have been round. It could have been a lot better. But that’s golf. That’s the way it is. Live to play another day.”
