Shane Lowry is poised to make a strong impact this weekend as he navigates the first two rounds of the 2025 DP World India Championship. After an impressive opening round of 64, Lowry maintained his momentum with a solid score of 69, positioning him just one shot behind the early clubhouse leader, Tommy Fleetwood.
Entering the weekend at Delhi Golf Club with a commendable total of 11 under par, Lowry is optimistic about his chances, believing the layout of the course complements his playing style. He noted the importance of approaching the course with a personal strategy. “I think you need to play this golf course the way you see it. There’s a lot of holes where you’re not hitting much off the tee, and you’re trying to get it in play, and that’s why I think it suits me,” he explained.
Lowry thrives on mid-irons, a critical element of this course that plays to his strengths. “Play to my strengths this week and hopefully I can be dangerous this weekend,” he added, expressing his determination to capitalize on his capabilities as the tournament progresses.
While acknowledging a slower start on the front nine and a frustrating bogey on a par five, Lowry emphasized a positive finish to his round, indicating that he is ready to tackle the challenges ahead. As he heads into the weekend, the hope is that his steady execution will allow him to contend for the title.
