Harrington claims second place in French Open

England’s John Bickerton survived a late wobble to win the £458,000 (€662,000) first prize at the French Open after holding off New Zealand’s Michael Campbell and Ireland’s Padraig Harrington.

The Droitwich golfer, leading by three with four to play, hit his approach to the 399-yard 15th into the water and double-bogeyed to see his lead cut to one at 11 under.
