Harrington wins PGA for his second straight major

Padraig Harrington is hot. How hot? He is so hot that he has two straight majors. He is so hot, he joins Tiger Woods, Nick Price and Walter Hagen as the only players to win the final two majors in the same year. He is so hot that he is the first European to win consecutive majors and has won three of the last six majors.

Sergio Garcia was poised to finally prove he could win a major, leading by one shot in the middle of the 16th fairway. But again he fell short, I don’t dare say choke. He hit 6-iron into the water and had to scramble for bogey, then missed a 4-foot birdie putt on the 17th to fall one shot behind. Come on, he should be able to make a 4-foot putt in his sleep. Then he made sure he would not win by hitting into the bunker on the final hole.

Like Superman, Padraig Harrington came out of nowhere. He even spotted Garcia three shots when they made the turn and made four birdies over the back nine.

Garcia did not make a big ass out of himself like he did last year when Harrington beat him last year at Carnoustie.

Did I already mention that Padraig Harrington is hot on the golf course.
