The 2019 Open Champion has become a member on the European Tour for life.
Shane Lowry Given Honorary Life Membership On European Tour
"It was a memorable occasion in Royal Portrush, and I think I speak on behalf of certainly everybody at The European Tour, but the way that everybody reacted globally to your (Shane's) win, on social media, the players, the fans, sponsor, and of course, your grandmother. It was a spectacular win, and it is a complete delight and privilege to award you with an Honorary Life Membership."
Shane said of the news; "It's pretty cool, isn't it. I suppose I never thought, you start playing golf when you're a kid and you don't know how good you can be, or even when you started playing as a pro. I didn't know that I would get to this day but yeah, it's pretty cool.
I've obviously joined a nice list of names, which is pretty good, as well. Obviously my heart lies with The European Tour. I'll always be a member. I love coming back and I love playing in events like this. It's an extreme privilege."
