The Offaly man has now shortened into 15/2 from 8/1 to score a second victory in his home open following his memorable breakthrough as an amateur at Baltray in 2009, rating him the most likely winner ahead of Seamus Power, who is 11/1 second favourite.
Lowry has gone close to winning this year without getting over the line, finishing runner up at the Honda Classic and third at both The Masters and RBC Heritage. Waterford’s Seamus Power meanwhile finished 12th at the recent US Open to follow up his 9th place finish at the USPGA, the best major showing of his career to date.
