    Thumbs up Harrington Wins in NY!

    €1 million prize money.

    Monster (30-40 feet?) eagle on last to win.

    At least he didn't have another 2nd place to add to his collection.

    65 foot putt said sky, superb stuff. What a guy, three down going onto 14th
    and still won. I feel for Furyk, but get in the Padraig. Awesome.

    Was tempted at 50-1 on Friday, but didn't know how his back was.
    The above is all opinion and based on personal experience. Unless stated otherwise it is not a dig at anybody, well probably none of you lot.

    Backed him this evening at 3-1. He was two behind at the time (I only thought it was one...)

    Superb finish

    Funny that Furyk sank the putt from edge of the green after too.

    Got to be one of the longer putts to win a tournament in a while.

    Maybe Harrington has now mastered the art of being crap one week but when in contention the next week he wins.

    Jimmy boy got just what he deserved after missing that putt from 3 foot on the 17, he would have been 1 ahead playing the last.
    Harringtons putt was brilliant, his reaction was great, the look of Jimmy's face was priceless as the ball dropped he turned and had a disgusted smile on his face.
    Furyk's putt had no pressure on it, so I would'nt read too much into that.

    An interesting thing was that they both use the same putter: Oddysey 2 ball.
