Back-to-Back Harrington
Guy who isn’t Dan’s brother wins British Open
Hmm, all this time I thought …
Padraig Harrington, brother not-the-brother of poker-great Dan Harrington, won the British Open yesterday at Royal Birkdale in Scotland. Congrats, distant-cousin (several times removed) to poker! That’s two-in-a-row at the British Open for Harrington — making him the first European to repeat in more than 100 years. Wow.
Meanwhile, a lot of people have finally read and are talking about the more pokery Harrington’s new(ish) back-to-back cash game books. Supposedly they’re great — that’s what everynone’s saying. I’m starting to wonder if one of the reasons I’m doing so poorly in
golf tournaments these days isn’t because I’m one of the few players who hasn’t read his Iliad on tournament play yet.

Maybe not poker related but this is actually Paddy’s cousin…
