Offaly man is not among the six automatic qualifiers and must now rely on a favourable pick from team captain Luke Donald if he is to make biennial showdown with the USA
Whatever you might feel about the ticker tape of numbers rolled out in professional golf, they are bound to have consequences. The European Team for the Ryder Cup will be announced in three weeks’ time and Lowry is not among the six automatic qualifiers. On the Ryder Cup website, four players are named as being “on the bubble” but there is no sign of Lowry on that list either.
Pádraig Harrington’s picks were Lowry, Sergio Garcia and Ian Poulter. The player squeezed out was Justin Rose. Even though Europe were beaten by a record margin at Whistling Straits, Lowry was one of the few European players to emerge with some credit. More than that, he was intoxicated by the whole thing.
Splitting from his caddie Brian ‘Bo’ Martin a few weeks before Honda was upsetting and disruptive, but his form had been dull before that. At the Hero Cup in January – a Ryder Cup warm-up between Continental Europe and Great Britain and Ireland – Lowry was the only one of the 20 players who failed to win even half a point.
