Pádraig the man in Transitions

Pádraig Harrington burst back into form with his lowest-ever career round with a 10-under par 61 on the opening day of the Transitions Championship in Tampa Bay, Florida.

The current world number 90 birdied his opening two holes and then his closing three for a new course record on the Copperhead course.

Harrington, who had a hole-in-one during the Pro-Am, recorded just 22 putts in a best round since recording an equal career best of a 62 in the 2009 Portugal Masters.
