Shane Lowry will be reunited with a former caddie for this year’s Travelers’ Championship, which gets underway this afternoon.

Dermot Byrne will be back on his bag this week, having last supported Lowry on the course in 2018 – in what’s been described as a short-term arrangement.

The 2019 Open winner confirmed his split with caddie Darren Reynolds after last week’s US Open – in which, Lowry failed to make the cut.
