Lowry out of stamina

Both Lowry and McIlroy pocket €100k for joint 12th. Not a bad weekend's work.

Awful start by our kid.
3 over after two holes.

He's managed to claw his way back up to a decent score after 13

He went for it, coulda took the easy option, he'll not lose sleep on that I'd imagine

Possibly, but had he landed that he'd have 2 shots to win, tells you how important that game is? Or how confident he was?

At the end of the day it's McIlroy is the boss, caddie can give the input. He obviously backed himself, it wasn't even close. The problem with that shot is if he played 3 on to the green worst case scenario is a playoff

How did he approach this shot in the last three rounds?
