SHANE LOWRY HAS been paired with Seamus Power for the opening round of this week’s Irish Open.

Englishman Tyrrell Hatton completes the trio for an 8am start this Thursday at Mount Juliet.

Padraig Harrington, who won the US Senior Open at the weekend, will start with last year’s winner Lucas Herbert, as well as Thomas Pieters.

Lowry arrives home on the back of missing the cut at the US Open, having previously been in fine form prior to that disappointment.

The Offaly native was tied for third at The Masters, finished 10th at the Canadian Open, came close to victory at the RBC Heritage and also finished second at the Honda Classic.
