He was five-under par for the day through his first four holes which took him to 15-under. He started with an eagle on the par-five first, driving to the fairway and then producing an approach to three feet.
A four-foot putt followed on the second for a birdie and he backed that up with a chip in for another on three before sinking a putt from nine feet for a third consecutive birdie on the par-three fourth.
A bogey on the par-four ninth was his only dropped shot but he couldn’t maintain the earlier momentum until a birdie three on the 15th. However, back-to-back bogeys on 17 and 18 meant Lowry had to make do with finishing for a share of 13th with play still ongoing.
