PÁDRAIG HARRINGTON returns to competitive golf this week at the Barclays Championship, the first of four events in the lucrative, season-ending Fed-Ex Cup series on the US Tour.

PHIL MICKELSON always plays the week before a major championship. Tiger Woods never does. That’s why Lefty will be in Memphis this week for the St Jude Championship and Tiger will be back home in Florida honing his swing and taking due care of wife Elin, who is expecting their first child in early July.
