Shane Lowry has revealed he will be caddied by his brother Alan when he bids for an Olympic medal in Tokyo this month.

Regular caddie Bo Martin, who partnered Lowry to his Open victory at Royal Portrush in 2019, will step aside for the week and younger brother Alan, a former Paddy Harrington golf scholar at Maynooth University, will take time off from his job with Deloitte to partner Shane.
