Shane Lowry makes the clinching Ryder Cup putt: ‘Coolest thing I’ve done in my life’
September 28, 2025
With a sure thing slipping from Europe’s grasp at the Ryder Cup, Shane Lowry saved the day. He made a 6-foot putt to clinch a tie in his match with Russell Henley and secure the halve that gave Europe its 14th point it needed to bring the cup home. Lowry joins a solid list of Irish golfers who have come up big at the Ryder Cup, including Graeme McDowell, Paul McGinley and Darren Clarke. As a bonus, Europe will defend the cup two years from now in the Irish city of Limerick.
