He reflected on his "disappointment," saying (via ASAP Sports):"The one zoomed in slow motion -- they're trying to tell me if it doesn't move from the naked eye, if you don't see it moving, it didn't move. I told them I definitely was looking down towards the ball as I was taking that practice swing, and I didn't see it move. But I had to take the penalty because -- I'm still not sure, to be honest, whether it was or not, but I had to take the penalty because I can't have my name talked about or tossed around like that, and I just get on with it."It's obviously very disappointing. I felt like I played really, really well today. And yeah, that's hard to take. Look, I'll just have to dust myself off and get out there tomorrow and give it a go," he added.Shane Lowry has tasted victory at the venue in 2019. However, he finished 10 strokes behind the leader after two rounds this week.This season, he had played in three majors before The Open but struggled with his game.
