Oak Hill is only the second PGA Championship venue that Shane Lowry has qualified to play more than once (he played Whistling Straits in 2010 and ’15). But the 10 years and significant changes between trips to Rochester didn’t leave that lasting an impression.

“I know you're getting old when you're coming back to major venues,” said Lowry, who made the second of his now 12 U.S. PGA starts at Oak Hill in 2013, tying for 57th. “Honestly, I have no recollection of 2013. Like, I remember I played with (Darren) Clarkie in the final round. That's all I remember about the week. I don't remember the course, even out there. I was sure when I got here, I’d remember some holes. Yeah, nothing at all. So obviously, 10 years older.”
