Well done Padraig
What a shot on the 17th. Worthy of winning any championship. Just caught the highlights clip on the BBC web site and I must say, the sportsmanship of Greg Norman after Padraig launched that 5 wood to 3 feet was almost as impressive as the shot itself.
Massively dissapointed that I wasn't able to watch any of the action live over the 4 days but I must say that the BBC web site 'live text' service was fantastic. All my predictions for the week crashed and burned - I must admit I didn't think that Harrington had a chance based on his form so far this year.
Also pleased to see Ian Poulter doing so well. It was some putt on the 18th to save par - three putting the 17th probably cost him his chance. I suppose he is glad that Harrington ended up winning so convincingly - removed the 'what if' from his thoughts.
All in all a great tournament that really tested the players. Bring on the Ryder Cup. Hopefully a European can end the jinx and win the USPGA.
