Shane Lowry's golf clubs missing ahead of tournament after Dublin Airport flight

Shane Lowry has posted an online appeal for help after his golf clubs and luggage went missing flying from Dublin to the States.

The golfer is competing at the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina this week and is the favourite to win the competition.

On Twitter this morning, Lowry wrote to Dublin Airport saying: "Can you help find my missing golf clubs and suitcase".

In an update this afternoon, the Offaly native thanked Dublin Airport who confirmed that his bags were in Chicago's O'Hare International Airport and appealed to United Airlines and Aer Lingus to help get them to him in Greensboro.

Lowry is not the only Irish golfer to experience the headache of losing their clubs before a major competition recently. Last month Leona Maguire's luggage went missing while she travelled from Dublin to the Amundi Evian Championship in France.

The Cavan native flew direct from Dublin to Geneva and said her bag went "missing between check-in and take-off". Thankfully after a public appeal for help, the bag was located and returned to Maguire before the competition.
