had a major championship debut he won't soon forget. He birdied two of the last three holes Thursday in the Open Championship, giving him a 6-under 65 with just enough spectators still left in the twilight of Royal Troon to celebrate with him.Lowry at least knew what to expect with an opposite wind that seemed to catch just about everyone off guard. He came to Troon two weeks ago and knew what to expect, and it paid off handsomely for the Irishman.
Lowry motored along, putting as well as he has all year, soaking up the warm applause all while reminding himself it was only one day. But he sure knew what to expect. Lowry, the Open champion at Royal Portrush five years ago, hit his stride around the turn. He birdied the seventh from about 10 feet and hit wedge to 10 feet at the par-3 eighth, the famed"Postage Stamp" that caused so much damage for a 123-yard hole.
