Lowry carded a two-day total of two-under at the Wyndham Championship to miss the cut by two shots.
Lowry was unable to get much momentum going at Sedgefield CC with just five birdies over 36 holes to miss the cut by two. He was mostly let down by his play on the greens as he lost 3.3 strokes putting. It's Lowry's first missed cut since his first event of the year, and he'll head into the FedExCup Playoffs in 10th place.
Lowry closed with a three-under 68 to finish in solo sixth place at the Open Championship on Sunday.
Lowry looked to be in command of things early on Saturday when he took a two-shot lead into the weekend. Things seemed to fall apart with a double-bogey on the short par-3 8th hole combined with five bogeys on the back-nine coming home to fall down the leaderboard. It was tough for everyone else as well on Saturday, so he was only three shots adrift of the lead going into Sunday. Lowry showed the form he flashed earlier in the week when he poured in four birdies in a five-hole stretch on the front-nine on Sunday. Unfortunately, he just couldn't get anything else to fall until he made a long one on 17 for birdie, but at that point Xander Schauffele was long gone. Lowry will have to wait until next year to get his hands on the Claret Jug once again, but the good news is the 2025 Open Championship will be at Royal Portrush again, the site of his 2019 triumph.
Lowry carded a three-under 67 in the final rounf of the Travelers Championship to finish in a tie for ninth place.
ALthough Lowry was unable to keep up with the blistering low scores posted by the contenders this week, his finish was an encouraging sign after needing a flourish at the ed of the U.S. Open to salvage his week. Lowry is not tin the field for the Rocket Mortgage Classic and will likely take a break before competing in the Scottish Open in a few weeks.
