Shane Lowry and Sarah Lavin to Lead Ireland at Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony

The two athletes will carry the Irish flag in a unique ceremony along the River Seine, marking a significant honor for both.

Shane Lowry, a PGA Tour golfer, and Sarah Lavin, a 100-meter hurdler, are named Ireland's flagbearers for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Lowry expressed immense pride and patriotism, calling the role a huge honor for him and his family.
The opening ceremony will feature athletes walking along a six-kilometer stretch of the River Seine, a departure from traditional stadium events.
Lowry recently faced disappointment at the Open Championship but sees this Olympic honor as a significant personal achievement.
Both Lowry and Lavin are set to become two-time Olympians, having previously competed in Tokyo.
