“#British Open champ Shane Lowry will have to settle for Memorial Tournament<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n DUBLIN, Ohio \u2014 In a different world \u2014 one with no COVID-19 \u2014 Shane Lowry would be teeing it up Thursday at Royal St. George\u2019s as the defending British Open champion.<\/p>\n

Instead, he\u2019ll be grouped with Phil Mickelson and Justin Rose at 1:06 p.m. for the first round of the Memorial Tournament.<\/p>\n

The British Open was canceled this year because of the pandemic. So, Lowry, who won at Royal Portrush last year, will hold onto the Claret Jug for another year and defend his title next July at Royal St. George\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wouldn\u2019t say it\u2019s bittersweet, but it is strange, like I should be going, should be in St. George\u2019s probably sitting in the pressroom there as defending champion and wondering how I\u2019m going to go out and tackle that golf course as opposed to being here in Ohio,\u2019\u2019 Lowry said Wednesday. \u201cIt\u2019s just very strange times for us at the minute, isn\u2019t it?\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Lowry has never played in an Open Championship at Royal St. George\u2019s, in the southeast of England.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo that would have been different,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u201cLook, we\u2019re here, this is the biggest tournament in the world this week, the Memorial, and this is a huge tournament in its own right, so I\u2019m very happ<\/a>y to be competing here. But obviously I\u2019d love to be in St. George\u2019s. I miss the crowds, you miss the kind of buzz, the adrenaline you get from that, and I miss all that.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, I\u2019d love to be in St. George\u2019s this week defending,\u2019\u2019 Lowry went on. \u201cI\u2019d love if we were playing in front of 40,000 or 50,000 people this week in St. George\u2019s. I\u2019d love it, like everybody in the world, if things were back to normal. But they\u2019re not, and we kind of have to get on with that.<\/p>\n

\u201cI miss being announced on the first tee as defending champion, but I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll get that next year. So, everything that I miss or that I won\u2019t get to do this week, I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll get to do next year.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Lowry said he\u2019s found himself \u201clooking at the trophy and looking back on clips and videos and stuff like that.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

The Golf Channel this week has been airing past British Open broadcasts.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not sure if other guys do that or if it\u2019s the right thing to do or the wrong thing to do,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u201cBut it\u2019s a moment in my life that I\u2019m very grateful for, and it\u2019s a moment that I\u2019ll always look back on with very fond memories. Even sitting in the house [Tuesday] evening, just finished dinner, and I was flicking through the channels and next thing the Golf Channel popped up and they were showing the final round.<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched a little bit of it. I didn\u2019t stay up late enough to watch it all, but I did watch a little bit of it, and yeah, it\u2019s just cool looking back on it. I\u2019ve never really watched it without like fast-forwarding bits and skipping the bad shots, skipping the missed putts. But I\u2019ve watched it a few times. I think my dad probably watches it every day.\u2019\u2019\n <\/p><\/div>\n
