SHANE LOWRY woke up with a killer hangover – after being inspired to Ryder Cup heroics by X-rated USA taunts.
The Irishman became a European legend on Sunday as his half a point retained the famous gold trophy.

Lowry battled with Russell Henley to tie match 8 until his final putt confirmed that Europe would retain the title.
The 38-year-old and his heroic tourists partied way into the night after their historic 15-13 win at Bethpage Black, New York.
He said on X alongside a crying emoji on Monday morning: “I might have a hangover.”
And he also revealed how Europe were driven to becoming only the fifth European side to win on US soil.
They had plastered quotes from Team USA captain Keegan Bradley around their Bethpage changing room.
One on the wall said: “We are going to go to Bethpage to kick their f***ing ass.”
The remark came back to haunt the American though, after a dazzling display on the Long Island course.
Not even a Sunday singles fightback could stop rampant Europe from their iconic Ryder Cup victory.
And the celebrations went way into the night, starting with champagne at Bethpage.
The team then partied with beers on their bus on the way back to their hotel.
From there they are understood to have jigged into the early hours.
And of course, it was Lowry leading from the front again.
After winning the Ryder Cup, Lowry could be seen bursting into tears as the emotion flooded out.
