TROON, Scotland – Shane Lowry likes his position these days. He’s had his day of being sent off ridiculously early, or going off late in the afternoon. Those positions are reserved for the rank and file.

But since his victory at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational last year, Lowry has noticed that his tee times and playing opponents have been a little more to his liking.

“I really have a good group tomorrow, and I’m looking forward to that,” Lowry said Wednesday at Royal Troon regarding his grouping with Jordan Spieth and Justin Rose at The Open.
