He played for coach Conrad Rehling from 1979-1983, on the Alabama Crimson Tide golf team In 1998, Lowery was involved in a bizarre incident at The Players Championship, in which his successful approach shot to the infamous island green on the 17th hole was stolen by a seagull (which then dropped his ball into the adjacent water hazard).
Under Professional Golf Association rules, Lowery was allowed to replace his ball with no penalty.
Though it was in a losing effort, Lowery played a memorable stretch of golf at The International in 2002. He holed out a shot from over 200 yards for a rare double eagle (or albatross) on the 71st hole to pull within one point, ultimately losing by the same margin after missing a birdie putt on the last hole. Coming near the very end of the tournament and creating such a close finish, Lowery"s double eagle was one of the most dramatic in Professional Golf Association Tour history since Gene Sarazen made a double eagle at 15 in the final round of the 1935 Masters Tournament.
Two holes before his double eagle, Lowery also holed out a wedge from the fairway for an eagle. this list may be incomplete Professional Golf Association Tour wins (3) Nationwide Tour wins (1) DNP = Did not play CUT = missed the half-way cut "T" = tied Yellow background for top-10.
