Shane Lowry was extremely unhappy with a lay-up shot that he hit on the par-5 13th hole and he gave it to his caddie with both barrels.

This was the second-best score of a blustery day in Georgia. Well done," Lowry said to his caddie Brian "Bo" Martin after finding the green with his third shot. Well done Bo. Only 30 yards out.

It was a day that promised so much for Shane Lowry, but Moving Day at the 2022 Masters was one that ultimately didn't deliver for the Clara man.

The Irishman wasn't impressed after he laid it up into the wrong spot on the 13th hole at Augusta.

"Yeah, myself and Bo, we were aiming at the HSBC sign, but his one was 30 yards right of the one I was looking at," he said after the round. We assume from his comments that he wanted to leave himself more like 90 yards in so hit at least two clubs less than he needed to with the lay up. "Left myself no shot," he said.

"There's no point in going out there and standing up and hitting a seven-iron straight at the flag on the first because that's not going to work around Augusta. "Look, I've never been in this position at Augusta, so it's the first time for me. The last ten holes just weren't good enough, and it's unfortunate." "You know, I had just lipped out on eight for birdie, feeling really good, and 99 yards to the flag, I mean, most stupidest shot I've hit in a while. "Yeah, look, I'm just quite disappointed at the moment. "I just hit a few bad shots," Lowry said.

Shane Lowry is devoid of artifice, more comfortable in the precincts of his local Gaelic football club than in stuffy clubhouses.

He had entered that final round with a four-shot lead and—in his delightfully unvarnished words, “sh*****g myself”—and survived adverse conditions to win by six. He followed up with top 15s in both the Players Championship and the Valspar Championship. He arrived in Augusta feeling quietly confident. While describing his longtime friend’s recent form as “alright,” McIlroy isn’t surprised to see him in contention at Augusta National. He knows Lowry is a man made for the tricky conditions, marked by strong wind gusts. Lowry, then a 22-year-old amateur, gutted out a final-round 71 and won his national Open in a playoff against Robert Rock. It was the first Tour event he’d ever played. Whatever happens Sunday—he enters the day in fourth, seven strokes adrift of Scheffler—pales by comparison. Scottie Scheffler may never face a more daunting day in his career than what awaits in Sunday’s final round of the 86th Masters, and not just because he built a lead so commanding that failure to close would be an upset (by day’s end, what had been a seven-stroke edge had dwindled to three). Scheffler is 25 years old and the splash he’s made on the PGA Tour—his first three wins coming in his last five starts— is so recent that the ripples haven’t yet settled.

He played solidly with eight opening pars but dropped shots on the 9th, 12th and 15th holes, before closing in positive fashion with a birdie on the 18th. Lowry remained in that position with three straight pars to open his back nine, but a bogey on the par-five 13th was a mistake that saw him back to level par for the day, while he also dropped a shot on the 17th. He hit a wild drive on 18 but took an unplayable lie and secured a fine result in the circumstances with a bogey.
