Shane Lowry has sent a classy message to Rory McIlroy after falling short to his friend at Pebble Beach on Sunday. Playing together in the final round of the AT&T Pro-Am, McIlroy held his nerve to hold off Lowry and Ryder Cup teammate Sepp Straka to win his first title of 2025.

Am, and heading into the final round on the Monterey Peninsula, it is perhaps the biggest in the field who is just out sharing the lead. Rory McIlroy was simply brilliant Saturday in the cold and blustery conditions as he navigated Pebble Beach Golf Links in bogey-free fashion en route to a 7-under 65 to sit one stroke behind 54-hole leader Sepp Straka at 16 under.
