Harrington and Clarke lose ground at US Senior Open

Irish pair fell further behind the leaders at Wisconsin today.

LAST UPDATE | 1 Jul 2023

PÁDRAIG HARRINGTON AND Darren Clarke both lost ground on day three in their hunt for Major glory at the US Senior Open this weekend.

Harrington shot a two over par 73 today which leaves him in a tie for 17th, on five over par overall. 

His round included two costly double bogeys, at the fifth and 15th holes. The Dubliner did hit five birdies today, but also hit three bogeys along with his pair of double bogeys. 

Clarke had an even par round of 71 which keeps him on three over, overall, with leader Bernard Langer on six under par. 

The Northern Irishman had birdies at the fifth and 15th holes but dropped shots at the fourth and eighth. 

After opening with rounds of three-over and four-over par respectively on Thursday, Harrington and Clarke had fought their way back up the leaderboard and into contention on Friday.

Harrington — who was unlucky not to add another senior Major to his collection when he lost to Steve Stricker in a play-off at the Senior PGA Championship in May — signed for a level-par 71 on Friday.

Clarke went one better with a one-under par 70, bouncing back from two early dropped shots to string together a bogey-free run of three birdies and 11 pars across the final 14 holes of his round.

    How are they persevering with Sanchez? Be a great spot for Kelleher now. Could win a few trophies there.

    Haaland was the Haaland from his Dortmund days in that second half so direct and bullying that Chelsea defence. Marmoush looks dangerous City have some options now attacking wise out wide also with Marmoush playing as a second striker too they have options to play different styles again. Still need a holding midfielder or someone who can run in the midfield.
