Harrington: US PGA woes won’t worry me

PÁDRAIG HARRINGTON wasn’t punching holes in any walls or smashing any clubs – not even the offending six iron he used to rack up that horrific eight on the shortest par three at Hazeltine National.

The US PGA championship was over and as YE Yang paraded the Wanamaker Trophy through the clubhouse and Tiger Woods licked his wounds in the locker room, Harrington reflected on what many would consider to be a crushing disappointment.

“Jaysus lads, it’s not a wake,” he said, scanning the gloomy faces who sought him out in the club’s caddie shack. “I don’t mind. I’m only interested in winning and I didn’t win, that’s it. It is not like it’s a big deal. If I was five shots better on one hole, I still wouldn’t have won. There’s no scar at all, none whatsoever.”
