Shane Lowry didn’t know what to make of the mural at first. He doesn’t look at himself as someone worthy of being celebrated as a national hero.

Shane Lowry won the 2019 British Open at Royal Portrush. Following the iconic win, the locals erected a mural depicting him hoisting the Claret Jug on the side of a house about a par 5 away from the course. Now, the Irish golfer receives received plenty of pictures of the mural and he’s glad he doesn’t have to drive by it this week.

Lowry feels “rejuvenated” and as prepared as he could be in his bid to become the first player to win consecutive British Opens at the same course since Tiger Woods at St. Andrews in 2000 and ’05.
