QUIZ: Could You Be Mates With Shane Lowry?

The Irish golfer seems to be the best craic on tour.

SOME GOLFERS CAN be boring.

Droning on and on about swing technique or the length of the fescue, it can be enough to drive you to drink at the 19th.

But Shane Lowry is different, he seems like actual craic. In fact, he seems like he might be the soundest person on Tour. But, what we want to know today is, are you sound enough to hang out with him?

All you have to do is take our foolproof quiz below to find out.

And, friends or not, if you think Shane or any of the Irish lads can do the job this week, check out Paddy Power’s Irish Open market here.
