'Rejuvenated' Lowry Ready to Go at Portrush

COUNTY ANTRIM, NORTHERN IRELAND, JUL 13 – Shane Lowry aims to become the first golfer since Tiger Woods to win consecutive British Opens at the same course, seeking to defend his 2019 title at Royal Portrush.

  • At Royal Portrush Golf Club, the 153rd Open Championship runs from Thursday, July 17, to Sunday, July 20, with talkSPORT 2 streaming live from 7am daily.
  • Back in 2019, Royal Portrush hosted the Open’s first outside Great Britain in nearly seven decades, selling over 190,000 tickets nearly a year early and Lowry’s six-stroke victory.
  • As a quirky welcome, a mural and dress code define entry; a mural of Shane Lowry holding the Claret Jug adorns a house across from Royal Portrush Golf Club, and spectators must wear suitable golf attire and cannot wear cargo shorts.
  • With memories fresh, Lowry described his mindset, saying 'because the last time was so good' drives his excitement at Portrush.
  • Beyond the Championship, public access details emerge: in 2026, green fees will be £420 for Dunluce Links, £200 for Valley Links with caddies, and membership carries a £2,000 annual fee plus a joining charge.
