ALFRED DUNHILL LINKS CHAMPIONSHIP


September 29, 2021


Shane Lowry


St. Andrews, Fife, Scotland

Quick Quotes


Q. Obviously you've made the long trip here from Wisconsin, how are you feeling?

SHANE LOWRY: Yeah, I'm okay. Obviously last week -- but I'm here now, try to show up and play good golf. Going to get a bit of practice today. I'm looking forward to the week here.

Q. When you come back from The Ryder Cup, obviously that week is such a pressure cooker and so full of intensity this must be the ideal ticket, playing with celebrities, stories and on links courses which only play to your strengths?

SHANE LOWRY: Honestly the ideal thing for me would be home on the crouch but no, this is great, I come here and play with the same partner, Gerry, and that's the reason I'm here is to try to win the hurt and have a good time as well. Yeah, this is one of the weeks of the year that I really enjoy getting to play the Old Course a couple of times, and you know, it's just so nice to be in St Andrews. Yeah, I'm just happy to be here.

Q. Upon reflection, you said you went into the week not really knowing what to expect. You must come away with a new perspective on the tournament.

SHANE LOWRY: Yeah, so I obviously watched Ryder Cups before. I never -- I've been to one at The K Club. I've never been involved in one. Didn't really know -- when I got there last week, it was everything I had imagined and more. Honestly it was the most amazing week of my golfing career.

It was something that I'll always remember for the rest of my life and hopefully I can be involved in many more of them. It was nothing but fond memories of the whole week, the week as a whole, obviously disappointed to lose but we gave it our all and that's you can ask. Yeah, it was amazing.

Q. Links courses play to your strength in the wind, but unfortunately we're going to get a bit of rain as well.

SHANE LOWRY: Yeah, the forecast is not very nice. Yeah, just bat down the hatches and try to make a few birdies and try to enjoy your time out there with your partners, and yeah, I've got a nice draw this week. I've seen them and playing with a couple of nice people we no. It's going to be a nice week.
