Shane Lowry took to Twitter to show off his threads ahead of the first round of the US Open - and Boston Celtics fans will be impressed by the Clara man's choice. <\/p>\n
Posting a tweet to his official Twitter page, the photo displayed a crisp white polo shirt with a large Boston Celtics logo emblazoned on the back. <\/p>\n
It is a savvy move from the Co. Offaly golfer given that this weekend's US Open will take place at The Country Club at Brookline, a course not too far outside of Boston, Massachussets. <\/p>\n
The Celtics' official logo since the 1960's has been a depiction of a leprechaun spinning a basketball, but shamrocks also hold a close association with the NBA team. <\/p>\n
The emblem adorning Lowry's shirt is the Celtics' secondary logo, which is used at present on player and fan apparel. <\/p>\n
Captioning the post, Lowry said: \"All set for tomorrow.\"<\/p>\n
Alongside the US Open, there are other major sporting matters to be settled in the States this week, and the NBA Finals - involving the Celtics - continue on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
The Celtics face a win-or-go-home game against the Golden State Warriors who, with their 3-2 series lead, are looking for just one more win which would secure them a fourth title in eight years.<\/p>\n
There is encouragement for Boston, however, in that they have won three games when facing eliminiation in this year's playoffs.<\/p>\n
They will be looking to win and force a first Finals Game 7 since 2016.<\/p>\n
That would take place on Sunday evening, by which time Lowry's own fate will have been sealed.<\/p>\n
