“Am fortunate to travel the world and feel the support from fans but it’s when you least expect it when it means the most. The Arora family flew in from Bangalore to watch me play in India today. No matter where you go you’ll always find people from Offaly. ☘️💚”

Currently sitting one shot behind leader Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry remains firmly in contention heading into the weekend. The 2019 Open champion followed his bogey-free opening round of 64 (-8) with a steady 69 on Friday, bringing him to 11-under-par 133 through 36 holes.

Reflecting on his second round Lowry admitted he didn’t start as well as he wanted, but managed to finish strong.

“I got off to a bit of a slowish start. Not much happened on the front nine [having started on the 10th], and then I made a stupid bogey on the par-5 [18th] from the middle of the fairway,“ said Lowry.

He added, “quite frustrated around the turn. But I felt like I finished well, and I played some nice golf on the way in. The course is there for the taking if you hit good shots, but if you hit it offline it’s very, very tricky. I’m happy with my two days’ work."
