Lowry has burger named after him

Shane Lowry has had a burger named after him in honour of his achievements on the golf course over the last month.

The Clara man is a brand ambassador for McGettigan's bar group, which has ten bars dotted across the globe. In recognition of his recent win at the WGC Bridgestone Invitational and his subsequent move in the top 20 in the world rankings, they have renamed their chicken burger, The Shane Lowry 'Driver' Special until the end of the month.

Every time the dish is purchased McGettigan's will make a donation to Lowry's nominated charity, Temple Street Children's Hospital.

Although he narrowly missed out on making the cut at the US PGA Championship at Whistling Straits last weekend, he was full of praise for first time Major winner Jason Day tweeting that his victory was "one for the good guys".
