Unlucky Harrington settles for 13th in US Open warm-up

PÁDRAIG HARRINGTON had to settle for a share of 13th place yesterday in his final warm-up for the United States Open starting on Thursday.

Harrington closed to only one stroke off the lead with four birdies in the first seven holes of the delayed final round at the US Tour's Capital Open in Maryland.

But then came a bogey at the eighth, a double-bogey two holes later and bogeys at the 12th and 14th.
