Pros give Portrush royal seal of approval
An Englishman and an Irishman competed in the final pairing of the Open Championship in Northern Ireland. Sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that was how the script for the 148th Open at Royal Portrush played out.
Who could have predicted a script with Irishman Shane Lowry winning on home soil? They may well run out of Guinness. One thing is for sure: it won’t be another 68 more years before the next Open Championship.
