View the full leaderboard here Lowry will now contest for his first PGA title since he won last year’s Zurich Classic team event with Rory McIlroy. Advertisement Speaking in his post-round press conference, he said he has progressed as a player since the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome when he helped Europe reclaim their title against the United States. “I feel like I’ve been like this for the past couple years, year and a half really. Since Ryder Cup in Rome, I feel like I’ve kicked on a little bit, and I’ve been quite mature. “I’ve worked hard, though. I’ve put a lot into it the last two years — my whole career, but particularly the last two years. I’ve worked very hard. Starting to see some rewards is good. Obviously you want trophies, and that’s going to be my number one goal. “If it happens, it would be great. If it doesn’t, I’ll dust myself off and go to Quail Hollow [For the PGA Championship] and try my best there. Yeah, one thing’s for sure, I’ll give my best.” Lowry also noted the different speeds on the greens as the tournament progressed. He feels they were “a lot quicker” for Saturday’s third round. When asked how he will approach the final round mentally, he replied: “I think just allowing myself to be myself and play my game. I think, if I allow myself to be me, I can achieve what I want to achieve. “It’s a funny old game. There’s obviously some of the best players in the world not too far behind us. So, yeah, I’ll give it my best.” Sinead Farrell Viewcomments Send Tip or Correction Embed this post To embed this post, copy the code below on your site Email “'If I allow myself to be me, I can achieve what I want to achieve'”.
