Record-breaker Molinari leads the way

Italian Francesco Molinari broke the course record on a day of spectacular scoring in The 3 Irish Open at County Louth today – but Padraig Harrington failed once again to ignite his season.

While the Open and US PGA champion, without a top 10 finish since January, managed only a one over par 73 after losing a ball on the final hole Molinari grabbed an eagle and eight birdies in a nine under par 63.
