Three Shots Off The Lead; Lowry Looks To Capitalise On Saturday 62

Monday, 23 August 2021 at 07:13

Find out how he spent an off-day yesterday.

Shane Lowry's three shots off the lead heading into today's final round of the Northern Trust in New Jersey, where all play was postponed yesterday due to a storm warning. 

A further bout of bad weather has seen four delays in the start of today's play so Lowry now looks set to begin his challenge at 6:30pm Irish time, assuming no other announcements are made by the PGA Tour communications desk. 

He'll resume 13 under par, three behind joint leaders Jon Rahm and Cameron Smith. 

Lowry will be hopeful of picking up where he left off on Saturday, shooting a stunning 62 to vault himself into contention.

Speaking after that round Lowry gave a little insight into how he spent the uncharted off-day.

It's obviously different. All Ireland final is on at half-eleven, or half-ten in the morning, so I get to watch that which I'm pretty happy about. Like I said earlier, I think there's worse cities to be stuck in for a day off than New York, so I'm sure I'll find something to do.

Rory McIlroy and Seamus Power are both on six under par.
