Harrington

they started birdie birdie, not as if he is playing badly

Play suspended.

You not watching? He's playing awful. All over the shop

Apart from his round last Sunday ( a 64) he has played very poorly for over a year .  Lucky to get a pick in front of Casey .

Hopefully he rediscovers his game , but doing so in the wet ( and windy on Sunday ) not the best guess . And there has been a lot of guesswork in Padraigs game lately .

should never have been picked ahead of either Paul Casey or Justin Rose, has played like a clown all year until that 64 last week, oh and the 10 eagles he got in practice according to Monty yeah right

g-mac playing great

pod should of said his game wasnt up to scratch--let casey in

i agree that pod was lucky to get a wildcard, casey did deserver it in fairness.

however harrington & donald are only on the 3rd hole and the americans started birdie/birdie in what are terrible conditions. i think it's too early to be saying he is playing awful, hit a poor tee shot on the first but more then half the players missed that fairway and still had a good chance of par and had birdie putts on the next two holes.

if they lose this match 5&4 and he hits it all over the place then you can say he is playing badly, not after completing 2 holes.

not saying he has played badly today YET, he had played badly nearly all year

mcdowell, were did he get the american accent ffs

He not live out there from his college days?

yeah he did down,

very seldom you hear a northern irishman lose his accent no matter how long hes been away now us dubs thats a different matter altogether

Play resumes at 5

Luke wil drag em back into it imo

Poor Pardraig..knackered http://twitpic.com/2tl9q8

Form is temporary CLASS is permanent so don't be writing off POD.

STUCK IN THE BUNKER

Going well now!

Playing good stuff now. Perfect foil for Fisher

Sammy morse knows alot about golf.very brainy boy.no smiley faces now the dope

robo seething

a winner again.

great to see POD winning again.  Wasnt the strongest of fields but  a win is a win. Some clowns on here and particularly on the golf forum seem to take satisfaction from his troubles over the past year. as somebody said above, class is permanent.

Now that he has won with a 20 under par score .....will he be changing his swing again ?

Only plays well with a dodgy neck fact, that guy he calls his physio went missing too, often spotted giving podsie a headlock on the course.

Away in Donegal last weekend , so missed this tournament .  Still a win is a win , no matter where .

Padraig has played well before in Asia , maybe the heat suits him .  Should help his world ranking too .
