Lowry and Power happy to hang on to McIlroy's coattails as ... (Irish Examiner)

Irish duo drew short straw as Oklahoma winds picked up for afternoon groups but both are content to still be within striking distance of the leader.

And then at the end there I kind of made a mess of that par-5 (fifth) so that was a bit of a downer. Said Power: “If the conditions match the forecast, it’s going to be quite a bit different. “You know, I watched the golf this morning and you know they obviously show all the guys who are making birdies and it looked easy and feel like you’re going out there and you want to shoot a score,” Lowry said. I holed the right putts at the right time – 12, 13 and 17. But in only his second career major start he held it together to remain in the mix. “That’s the first round in three weeks as well and I was a bit anxious going out there.

The rest of it was pretty decent on that front nine." "The greens are pretty run down, and it's just getting a little crispy, and the breeze is up, so it was tough, but overall I can't be too displeased. "I don't know it was like this morning, but it was tough going out there this afternoon," Power said. "It's going be quite windy overnight and tomorrow morning and hopefully, the wind stays up for the guys in the afternoon. "I holed the right putts at the right time—12, 13 and 17. "You feel like you're going out there and you want to shoot a score.

Shane Lowry: No need for Sky Sports to apologise as he stays in ... (SportsJOE.ie)

The 2019 Open champion is tied for 27th after his opening day at the second major of 2022. On a day when many top players may have shot themselves out of ...

😄 Must drive the commentators nuts having to apologise all the time! It was also close to 11pm for viewers in the UK and Ireland, so well past any watersheds. Many Irish viewers of Sky Sports were frustrated, having been glued to Rory McIlroy card a tournament-leading 65, earlier in the day, that there was little coverage of Lowry and Seamus Power as they went about their rounds. When cameras did a live check in with Lowry, on the 14th tee, the microphones picked up some blue language. The Clara native went out and came back in 35 to card and even par 70 in his opening gambit. Ahead of his 12th PGA tournament, Lowry had spoken about how someone always goes low on the Thursday at a major, no matter how easy or tough a course is set up.

Opening Round From McIlroy Proves McGrane And Other Doubters ... (Balls.ie)

After finally producing the opening round of major golf every Rory fan has been begging for, McIlroy now has the golf world truly believing he can add a ...

But Rory turns up at the major tournaments and he’s a bit sheepish in my opinion. It was certainly an excellent opening round from the Down native, one that you would have to hope will help him put his recent mental block at majors behind him. I think he plays golf as if he’s terrified to let people down by not winning more majors.
