Lowry, now the leader, with Rose hidden and Scheffler has shown his head

Date:

It’s Friday inside Royal Throne and the wind blows, the child blows. From the South, the non-dominant of the area, that is, in the first nine holes he is against and in the second nine he is in favor. You just need to see the rags in the flags. The truth is you have to go out on the field and play in these conditions. But we are on British Open, on the Atlantic coast and in a link. pure Authentic. A great test of golf.

It’s tough, it’s fierce, it’s claimed some famous victims (and claimants) and on the 1st tee it stands like a beautiful northern chick. Jon Rahm with a white short-sleeved polo shirt and that’s pretty cool. When the Basque hit the ball, almost all the fish were sold to the top of the table, unlike the day before, when in the penultimate game, almost at night, a surprise leader entered.

Not now, Shane Lowry, the 37-year-old Irishman and exciting British Open champion in 2019 in the historic edition of the return of the Pitcher at Royal Portrush, in Northern Ireland, birdied the 18th hole for 69 strokes and 135 (-7). ) in total. The standing crowd roared.

On the 11th hole, Lowry’s second shot missed the bushes, and he played a provisional ball. The public finds their original ball and, as a rule, has to play with it. It took Lowry 20 minutes, talking to the referee and stuff, until he hit his fourth shot. He sneakily shot some bushes onto the green and ended up with a double bogey that left him at -5. “To be honest, I was happy to leave there with a ‘6’. It wasn’t a disaster. I was still leading the tournament,” said Shane.

It will be over soon Daniel Brown, the 276th in the world ranking that, despite the class and pressure, delivers 72 (+1) and 137 (-5). The world number 1 is over Scottie Scheffler. The Masters champion, however, succumbed to a stroke (bogey) on the 18th hole for his second 70 and 140 (-2). At the start he got to a booker, hit the three-green and missed the putt to save par.

Three hours later, the public’s other sentimental favorite, the Englishman, finished his tour. Justin Rose, 43 years old, making a big birdie putt on the final hole, a round of 68 and also 137 strokes. Rose won the US Open at Merion in 2013, 2nd to Sergio García at the 2017 Augusta Masters and tied for 2nd at the 2018 British Open at Carnoustie won by Francesco Molinari.

Rose questioned with a look of satisfaction on her face after seeing the ball inside the pot. They probably played with more wind than their rivals, who played in the morning and although it was blowing, it was stronger after 2 o’clock. This is his 22nd Brirish. In 1998 he rose to prominence as a novice finishing 4th at Royal Birkdale. In addition, Rose has the honor of becoming the first Olympic gold medalist in golf history, at Rio 2016, with a hole in one. The weekend is promising.
