This was the best shot hit on the European Tour in 2015

Shane Lowry’s miracle wedge shot has been voted 2015 European Tour Shot of the Year. 

Lowry’s shot, played at a crucial moment during the WGC Bridgestone Invitational, received nearly 25% of the votes. 

“It’s a huge honour to win European Tour Shot of the Year,” says Lowry. “It’s a shot I will never forget. Thanks to everyone who voted. I’m looking forward to another great season in 2016. I can’t wait to get back to competitive golf next week in Malaysia when I represent Europe in the EurAsia Cup.’

Lowry’s miracle wedge shot helped secure the Irishman his first win since 2012.

“It was actually a pretty horrific lie,” says Lowry. “It was sitting down in a hole. It was almost like someone had stood on it, but it was where the crowd was walking. And I just said to Dermot, I’ll try and hit sand wedge and just get it down to the front of the green. I pulled it a bit too low and went into the tree. The rest is history.”
