One putt changed Harrington's life

Posted: Wednesday July 23, 2008 08:37AM ET

Padraig Harrington has two British Open titles, and it all started with a miss. But it wasn't his. imagine where he would be if Sergio Garcia had made that 10-foot par putt last year at the British Open. What everyone remembers from Carnoustie is Harrington draped in an Irish flag and carrying his son Patrick, who wanted to fill the silver claret jug with ladybirds. Forgotten after his playoff victory was a collapse that would have ranked with anything Greg Norman ever did and, by Harrington's admission, might have ruined his career.

Helen from Keller, are you sure? I would think he would post on other threads too if that was the case.

Parsley,

I was being sarcastic. That said, I did see that crazy post on other threads this morning.

Looks like Fengsa fell victim to the FN takedown.

Harrington is a class act...he goes out and plays his game.That is why he's had success on both the PGA and European Tours.
