Before the opening round at tentacleLowry was “shaking a little with drivers” as he was unhappy with his big stick during his last tour. But this is an underestimation when you hear the details of the horse’s mouth.

Changes did not shock his game. 2019 open champion He went out and fired a three-nine 69 Thursday in treacherous conditions to enter the quarrel. Incredibly, when asked which driver he ended up using, Lowry didn’t know.
“What model? It is another srixon. I have no idea, “Lowry said on Thursday.” I had about 15 drivers in the verse Tuesday here, so no idea I ended up. “
Then on Friday, Lowry became even better. He shot a 67 to reach eight under and take the lead.
After round 2, Lowry confirmed that he used the same driver on Friday that he would use on Thursday, and he again explained the broad test he would undergo this week.
“I think my driver gave up on me last week, what I used. Yes, I didn’t run it great around PGA National and realized there was something wrong with my driver,” Divided Lowry. “I have tried some this week. I used another Sunday last week, and then tried a lot on the course. Golf like this has a small piece of shooting, really tough that you really need a great level of commitment and trust, and I will try to make it for the weekend.
He went on, “I’m getting there, felt a little better, but not as comfortable as I’m normally. Normally it’s one of the best clubs in my bag. But I feel like I can be very dangerous.”
Considering that he has already built a lead despite having low confidence in his driver, if he earns the belief he is looking for, the rest of the field better take care.
