Shane Lowry's deft touch around the green and stinging long irons are a feature of the game that makes him such an exciting watch, but his coach understands on a deeper level what really makes him a world class operator.
It’s the fearless determination that Lowry first displayed on a national level as a 22-year-old at Baltray. He took down the rest of Europe’s elite as an amateur, making history in the Irish Open and showing composure beyond his years.
It was the defining moment of his early career and brings back fond memories for coach Neil Manchip. The Scot has witnessed the rise and rise, been there every step of the way and helped Lowry to claim Major glory too when he added the Open to his CV.
