Week 41 - SHANE LOWRY WINS THE PORTUGAL MASTERS AND CLIMBS TO WORLD NUMBER 74
week 41

Irishman Shane Lowry beat England's Ross Fisher by one at the Portugal Masters after a thrilling final day in Vilamoura. The 25 year old, who captured the Irish Open in an amazing debut three years ago, became only the second player to win on The European Tour as both an amateur and a professional. Shot of the day from Lowry was a seven iron into the hole for an eagle two at the 11th, who looked to have secured a play-off until Fisher three-putted the last for bogey. The win takes Lowry up to World Number 74, a jump of 54 positions.
