Sat 04 Apr 2007Harrington makes most of a few good breaksUS Masters:On Thursday evening, something played on Padraig Harrington's mind as he reflected on his woeful start to his latest US Masters adventure. It wasn't the triple-bogey eight that was racked up on the 15th; rather, it was the misdemeanour on the previous hole, the 14th, where he three-putted from 25 feet.It was, he attested, one of a number of "silly errors" that had crept into his game. He didn't like it, not at all. Padraig Harrington never likes signing for a round of 77.
