LAST UPDATE | 27 May 2023

PADRAIG HARRINGTON CONTINUES to lead the way in the Senior PGA Championship, the second Major of the season on the Champions Tour, at Fields Ranch East.

The Irishman sits on 16-under, one shot clear of American Steve Stricker, going into the final round on Sunday.

Harrington shot a four-under-par 68 today, and might have been further ahead of the field but for a double bogey at the 16th hole. 

The 51-year-old made consecutive birdies at the sixth, seventh and eighth holes. He also had birdies at the third, 12th and final hole. 

Daren Clarke is tied for fourth place on nine under after a third consecutive round of 69.

Clarke recovered from a bogey at the first hole, with birdies at the sixth, seventh, 12th, 16th and 18th. He dropped a shot on the 11th.  

Harrington fired a course record eight-under 64 in the opening round and followed up that blistering start to finish day two on 12-under par.
