Harrington’s focus issues

PÁDRAIG Harrington returns home from the US this morning striking a low-key tone ahead of this week’s 3 Irish Open.

The three-time major winner left Florida last night following an interesting albeit unsuccessful week at The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass in which he shot rounds of 72, 72, 74 and 72 to finish well down the leaderboard of the strongest field in golf.

As has so often been the case with Harrington the real action of note has taken place not on his scorecard but between his ears.
