After what he deemed a "pretty average" year, Shane Lowry said he feels more motivated than ever heading into 2024.He is, however, conscious of time ticking by."I'm 37 next year.

There's not too many golfers that played great in their 40s," Lowry told RTÉ Sport."I'm starting my 16th season next year on Tour.

If you include 2009, which was nearly a full season, from May to December."It's been a long... well, not a long career. But a decent career so far."In my head, I feel if I can get to 45 still very competitive, I'd be very happy with that.

That's still nine years."Sitting around the team room in the Ryder Cup, you're looking around and I'm the second oldest player there."Looking at Ludwig Aberg come out and play the way he does.
