Lowry recorded an eight-over 80 during the final round of The Masters to finish tied with Alex Noren and Harris English for 30th.
Analysis:Lowry found himself in contention for his first green jacket after going nine-under par through the first three days, highlighted by his ace on the sixth hole of the third round (his second hole-in-one in his career at Augusta National). However, the Irishman had a Sunday to forget, finishing with three double bogeys, five bogeys and three birdies. It was all the more disappointing given that eventual winner Rory McIlroy went even par over the final two rounds at Augusta, which opened the door for Lowry and the rest of the field to catch up, though the former did enough to earn his second green jacket in as many years. Lowry ended the tournament seventh in GIR, eighth in SG: Approach and 24th in SG: Tee-to-Green, though he ranked near the bottom in SG: Putting and SG: Off-the-Tee. He is in the field for next week's RBC Heritage, where he's made the cut in seven of eight previous outings (including two top-3s) and finished T18 in 2025.
