Amgen Irish Open Recap

Trump International Golf Links · September 10–13, 2026

Shane Lowry won the Irish Open at -23 with a staggering +23.5 SG, the largest SG performance we have recorded this season. Lowry was on the consensus-adjusted list but not the staked card. Our three deep longshots all missed: Winther T23, Catlin missed the cut, Ritchie T60. Week -1.5u. New format running P/L: +19.55u through eight weeks.

Lowry Dominates at -23. Staked Plays Miss.

Shane Lowry won the Irish Open at -23 with a staggering +23.5 SG, the largest SG performance we have recorded this season. Lowry was on the consensus-adjusted list but not the staked card. Our three deep longshots all missed — Winther T23 at $404, Catlin missed the cut at $576, Ritchie T60 at $375. -0.5u each. Week P/L: -1.5 units. Watchlist hits: Dantorp T9 ($576, +0.9pp) — another near-miss just outside 5-place terms. De Leo T5 ($362) from the Watchlist would have been a significant E/W payout.
