Shane Lowry believes Europe have the best 12 players available as they bid to regain the Ryder Cup from the United States.
Lowry received one of captain Luke Donald's six wild cards on Monday having finished 11th on the European points list and eighth on the world points list, with only the top three on each qualifying automatically.The former Open champion won the first qualifying event - and will defend his BMW PGA Championship title next week - but his sole top-10 finish in 2023 came in February's Honda Classic.
'It's strange, I've seen the odd thing from people that aren't in the know saying maybe somebody else should have got picked but it's not even close. 'If we were playing a small tournament in the middle of nowhere with no adrenaline maybe Shane wouldn't be the right pick, but when it comes to the Ryder Cup I'd definitely be trusting him.
