Shane Lowry is three shots off the top after his opening round at the Masters.
The Offaly man shot a 70, which included a chip in eagle on the 13th hole to leave himself two-under-par and is now in contention going into day two.
He tees off just after five to six alongside Jason Day and Dustin Johnson.
Lowry says he had a positive first day:
An eagle at the par-5 13th!
