Quick Quotes


Q. The half-point to retain the Ryder Cup for The European Team. You look in disbelief. Tell us all how you are feeling and where this moment ranks in your career.

SHANE LOWRY: (Through tears) I mean, I've been so lucky to experience amazing things in this game but that was the hardest couple of hours of my whole life, honestly, like I just can't believe it. I can't believe that ball went in. I stood over it going, "This is it."

I said to Darren walking down 18, I said, "I have a chance to do the coolest thing of my life here." And like, the Ryder Cup means everything to me, honestly. I've won The Open in Ireland. It's amazing. It's a dream come true.

But the Ryder Cup for me is everything, like, and to do that there today on the 18th green in front of everyone, it was so hard out there.

I mean, fair play to the U.S. lads. We knew they were going to come out fighting but yeah, I just hope one of the boys can get a half-point so we can get the win. Obviously we've retained the Cup but we want to win, as well, but yeah.
