Missed cut adds to Harrington’s woes

Pádraig Harrington was aboard the first stagecoach out of town after missing the halfway cut in the Wells Fargo Championship in suburban Charlotte, North Carolina.

Harrington had struggled to play all four rounds of last week’s Zurich Classic of New Orleans but with this week’s 2017 PGA Championship venue asking far more difficult questions than those presented in Louisiana.

The Dubliner posted rounds of 72 and 78 for a six over par total and to be lying in a share of 138th place in the 156-player event, and five shots shy of the projected cut-off point.
