Reed and Niemann finish tied for second at Irish Open
Summary

Patrick Reed and Joaquín Niemann tied for second place at the Irish Open, finishing the tournament 12 under par. Reed, a former LIV Golf player, solidified his position in the Race to Dubai, while Niemann's future remains uncertain following LIV Golf's recent bankruptcy filing, where he is an unsecured creditor. Shane Lowry dominated the event, winning by eleven shots. With five events left on the DP World Tour calendar, Niemann may try to improve his status for 2027, as he is currently not a member of major tours.
