That was some win - consecutive majors - unreal.

3 majors in 13 months. Some achievement. Must be the clear world number 2 now behind Tigger.

Harrington kinda reminds me of Faldo in that he probably isn't the most naturally talented golfer around but he has unbelievable mental strength and works so hard on his game. Wouldn't bet against him winning a couple more majors.

Sounds like FIFA do the golf rankings as well.

It's just that the golf rankings are heavily weighted towards performances in US tour events, as that's normally where the higher ranked players play, thus it's much more difficult for someone who plays mostly in europe to move up the rankings.  Tbh I don't think it's a priority of harrington's at all as he only seems to care about majors, he doesn't even particularly try in the WGC events which provide huge ranking points.

Did that Indian fella atop the leaderboard once boast about killing his Da in a Mayo bar?

WTF ???

Sorry, I was making a juvenile allusion to 'Playboy of the Western World' and the fact that JM Synge and JM Singh might be one and the same!
