The Offaly man is aiming for a first major since 2019.
Head Professional in Tullamore Golf Club Brian McCormack believes Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy can benefit from being paired together.
The Irish duo tee off their opening round of the US Open alongside England's Justin Rose at 12:40pm Irish time today aiming to win the third major of the year.
The winner of the US open will also receive $4.3 million.
McCormack says if the players are relaxed together then they'll play good golf:
