Harrington proves blonds have more fun

HAVING taken part in one of the most exciting finishes to a golf tournament for a long while, one intrepid press representative asked Padraig Harrington whether he intended to keep his blond hair.

"I think I will," said Harrington. "Blonds seem to have more fun."

The world's eighth ranked player had just finished second for an amazing 21st time in his career and for the second year running in the prestigious Players Championship, golf's richest event and unofficial fifth major.
