Harrington to take on Augusta his own way

“I’m a better player than I was when I won the three majors”. Pádraig Harrington talks to Simon Lewis and describes Augusta National as the most intimidating tournament course in golf. But the Dubliner insists it is a challenge which inspires him.

BY now, it has been pretty well established that Pádraig Harrington loves doing things the hard way.

The tougher the challenge, the bigger the prize, the more formidable his opponents — it all helps the process of bringing out his best and that approach has, after all, brought him three major championships and made Harrington Ireland’s most successful sportsman.
