Harrington claims Grand Slam to end drought

Pádraig Harrington hopes he’s got the winning habit again after closing with the sweetest three-putt of his career to win the PGA Grand Slam of Golf in Bermuda and end his two-year victory drought.

The Dubliner fired a four under 67 at Port Royal to finish a shot in front of US Open champion Webb Simpson on nine under par and become the first Irishman to lift the title and just the second European winner since Welshman Ian Woosnam in 1991.

Asked if he’d be celebrating, Harrington added: “Absolutely I’m going to make sure I enjoy this win because even in your very, very, very best year, you might have three or four wins. It just doesn’t happen as often as people think, so when it happens, you’ve got to enjoy it.”
