Shane Lowry blasts "disgusting" levels of money as he vows never to entertain LIV Golf

Shane Lowry has taken yet another swipe at the LIV Golf Series, describing the monumental amount of money on offer in the world of sport as "disgusting". The Irishman secured his first win since the 2019 Open Championship last weekend, as he saw off Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy to win the BMW PGA Championship.

It was a week of tension at Wentworth, with 18 LIV golfers making their controversial return to the DP World Tour. Lowry in particular found himself in the middle of golf's ongoing civil war, revealing ahead of the week that he "couldn't stand" certain players returning, whilst admitting he won last Sunday's title for the "good guys" - another dig at the breakaway players.

In his week of celebration, Lowry has once again found himself discussing the controversy surrounding LIV Golf, and was critical about how the sport is seemingly dominated by financial incentives rather than trophies.
