Major effort required if Harrington to make Ryder Cup cut

Pádraig Harrington has his last chance of making the European Ryder Cup team when he travels to Kiawah Island this week in search of a second US PGA Championship.

Major effort required if Harrington to make Ryder Cup cut

Harrington goes into the event on the back of a moderate performance in the Reno-Tahoe Open at the weekend where he finished 23rd. The tournament was very much secondary to the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational at Akron which he did not qualify to play in and where Keegan Bradley took full advantage of a final hole meltdown by Jim Furyk.

They all move on now to the Ocean Course at Kiawah on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, a venue well remembered for the six-foot putt missed by Bernhard Langer on the final green in the final match that cost Europe the 1991 Ryder Cup.
