Harrington facing uphill battle

PADRAIG HARRINGTON faces a battle to resurrect his fortunes at the St Jude Classic at TPC Southwind, Memphis, after carding a second-round 74 that leaves him well off the pace.

Double bogeys at the fourth and 11th holes were primarily his undoing, as he finished on four over for his round, slippin one under par overall.

Fellow Irishman Rory McIlroy fared far better, after a nifty 66 that leaves him near the top of the leaderboard at five under par.
