Resolute Harrington gets his mojo back

Pádraig Harrington showed the mental toughness struggling Rory McIlroy is lacking when overcoming tough conditions to share the clubhouse lead on the opening day of the Valero Texas Open.

Harrington, rugged-up in four layers of clothing, recorded a four under par 68 before being joined by American Billy Horschel atop of the board on Greg Norman designed TPC San Antonio course.

And as delighted Harrington was with his effort, he did go to lunch with the bitter taste of bogeying the last — the only dropped shot of his round.
