WATCH: Shane Lowry goes off on the cameraman after spraying a shot wide at The Open - "F**k sake!"

Shane Lowry had a small confrontation with a cameraman on the second day of the Open Championship 2024. Lowry is currently participating in the PGA Tour's fourth Major from July 18 to 21, 2024 at the Royal Troon Golf Club in Troon, Scotland.

On the second shot of the 11th hole, Lowry wasn't happy after making his shot as it sprayed wide and missed the target by a significant margin. Lowry can be seen talking to the cameraman in a clip posted to X (formerly twitter):

"As I was over the ball I could just see you putting your f—kin' camera up. Just get outta the way. Just get back there. F—k sake!"

Lowry went on to score a double bogey on the par-4 11th hole. At the time of writing, Lowry is at the top of the leaderboard with 5-under 121 after 32 holes. He is followed by Daniel Brown in the second position.

The 37-year-old golfer had a great first round. He carded a bogey-free 5-under 66 in the first 18 holes. In the front nine of the second round, he scored three birdies - on the 4th, 7th, and 8th - along with a bogey on the 5th. He was 7-under in 10 holes of the second round until the double bogey.
