Shane Lowry returns to a familiar face on the bag ​ahead of this week's Travelers ‌Championship in Cromwell.

Lowry summoned caddie Dermot Byrne, who held that ​role for the first ​10 years of the Irishman's career. ⁠Lowry said he reached ​out to Byrne because he ​needed a caddie on short notice.

"We'll see what the plan is going forward. ​No idea really," Lowry ​said, per Golfweek.

Lowry, 39, parted ways with ‌Darren ⁠Reynolds after he missed the cut at the U.S. Open last week at Shinnecock Hills ​Golf Club.

The ​winner ⁠of the 2019 Open Championship, Lowry has three ​wins on the PGA ​Tour. ⁠He has recorded a T2 finish at the 2016 U.S. ⁠Open, ​a T3 at ​the 2022 Masters, and a T4 at ​the 2021 PGA Championship.
