Description
Shane Lowry and Smylie Kaufman reunite during "Honda" (now Cognizant) week to relive their opening of the 2016 tournament broadcast by promptly hitting two balls in the water and getting fined for their reactions. Shane explains why he would solve golf's distance debate without rolling back the golf ball, and proposes an alternate solution. Shane also relives the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome, and why he bristled at the suggestion that he was the "last" pick on Team Europe. 0:14 Shane's stay-at-home dad job this weekend with his daughters1:42 Do his daughters like to play golf?3:10 Shane's Gaelic football heritage9:48 How Shane picked up golf in County Offaly, Ireland17:01 Shane and Smylie's wedge practice as kids19:28 The evolution of Shane's opinion on Florida golf20:38 Shane puts together the perfect Ireland golf trip28:35 When Shane originally moved from Ireland30:57 Discussing the WGC at Firestone CC32:18 Living and practicing in Jupiter, Florida33:27 Shane's ball-testing day with golf balls that would conform to USGA + R&A rollback36:13 Shane's proposed solution to increased distance in golf38:42 Shane recaps the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome41:06 Responding to doubters after Luke Donald made Shane a captain's pick46:36 What makes Sepp Straka such a good player47:52 Shane on his battle with Sepp Straka in the rain at 2022 Honda Classic49:20 Shane and Smylie relive their infamous tee shots in the "Bear Trap" at PGA National in 2016
