Shane Lowry may not have a great track record at the Masters but the former British Open champion combined solid approach play and great putting in windy conditions at Augusta National on Friday to vault into contention.
The Irishman, who began the day six shots back of the first-round lead, matched his career-best round at Augusta with a four-under-par 68 to reach three under at the halfway point of the year's first major.
Lowry will head into the weekend in a four-way share of second place and five shots back of world number one Scottie Scheffler after a day that was anything but fun for him.
