“I didn’t think it was going to come down to me,” Shane Lowry told BBC Radio 5 Live, after being picked to play in the eighth of 12 matches in Sunday’s singles.
“When I was going down the sixth hole the scoreboard looked amazing – blue everywhere.
“Obviously, the US team did a great job in coming back and it was hard out there.
“The whole week we had our team-mates beside us, but you were out on your own today and it was incredibly difficult.
“We knew the crowd were going to make it difficult for us, and they did.
“I went two down at 13 or 14 and I just said to Darren [Clarke] I had to do something here.
“The boys, you know, we were struggling.
“I said I have to do something and I hit three of the best iron shots I have hit in my life and obviously I holed that putt.
“Ahhh, I’m shaking, I was shaking over it, you know.
Yeah, the Irish and the Ryder Cup…there’s something about it.”
