“I PROBABLY SHOULDN’T BE SAYING THIS…” SHANE LOWRY MAKES SHOCK CONFESSION

Shane Lowry makes a comment about the referees during the Singapore Classic.

“I probably shouldn’t be saying this…” Shane Lowry makes shock confession
Shane Lowry believes the referees have been following him all week at the Singapore Classic on the DP World Tour.

Lowry, 36, has been battling jetlag over recent days having made the long journey from The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass over to Laguna National Golf & Country Club for the Singapore Classic.

The former Open champion, who finished a respectable T19 at The Players last week, has played his way into contention at the Singapore Classic despite a lack of sleep.

Shane Lowry with strop of the year contender?!
Lowry posted a solid 66 on Saturday to move to 8-under par and sit five strokes behind 54-hole leader David Micheluzzi.

The Australian leads by one stroke over English duo Andy Sullivan and Sam Bairstow.

LIV Golf’s Paul Casey received a sponsor invite into the tournament and he is making good use of it by moving to 10-under par.

Casey revealed the sole reason he decided to join LIV Golf earlier this week.

“I probably shouldn’t be saying this…” Shane Lowry makes shock confession
After the round, Lowry jumped into the Sky Sports Green Room where players are able to get everything off their chest.

Lowry, who is considered one of the quicker players, did not hold back as he made his shock confession about being on the clock:

“I feel like the referees are following me all week (laughs). Probably shouldn’t be saying this. I feel like I’ve been on the clock a lot this week, which is not me. I obviously don’t think it’s me. We’ve been in a few but bad spots. But I’ve been on the clock a lot, which is not what I’m used to.”
Despite feeling that way, Lowry has not been penalised for slow play this week.

The Irishman also confirmed he has been struggling with jetlag all week.

Lowry added:

“I’ve been awake at about 3am, probably 3 or 4am every morning, getting to bed about 10 o’clock. [I’m] trying to go to bed as late as I can so I’ll sleep but that hasn’t been working. I’m very sleep deprived this week. But it was my decision to come here so I can’t really blame anyone but myself.”

Lowry is going in search of his seventh DP World Tour title and his first since the BMW PGA Championship in September 2022
