DUBAI, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Shane Lowry suffered yet more frustration as the Irishman's attempt to top the European Tour money list for a first time floundered after another difficult round in the desert on Friday.
Going into the season-ending $8 million DP World Tour Championship, the world number 18 was one of seven players still in contention to win the Race to Dubai -- the continent's revamped Order of Merit.
However, Thursday's error-strewn opening round of 75 all but ended his chances and although he improved to card a second-round 70 on Friday, Lowry has now set himself more modest goals for the remaining two days.
