LAST UPDATE | 23 Jun 2024
PADRAIG HARRINGTON PULLED clear of a three-way tie for the lead to clinch victory at the Dick’s Sporting Goods Open in New York.
It is the Dubliner’s second win of the season on the Champions Tour and a round of four-under par was enough to triumph after going into Sunday level with playing partners Stephen Ames and Ken Tanigawa.
An eagle on the par five third gave him momentum and while it was followed by a bogey, there were three more birdies before the turn.
Harrington then bogeyed the 10th before settling down with four successive pars.

A birdie on 15 meant he had a one-shot lead on 15-under par over Canadian Mike Weir, who was already in the clubhouse, heading down 18.
A par secured his third win in a row in this event.
