Pádraig Harrington withdraws from next week's PGA Championship

Harrington, Edoardo Molinari and Thomas Pieters have all withdrawn.

PÁDRAIG HARRINGTON WILL not line up at the PGA Championship next week after informing organisers of his decision to withdraw.

As the 2008 champion, Harrington is guaranteed entry to every PGA Championship without needing to qualify.

The Dubliner and Italy’s Edoardo Molinari both withdrew on Thursday, the PGA Tour website reported, with Troy Merritt and Taylor Gooch added to the 156-man field in their place.

Belgium’s Thomas Pieters withdrew on Wednesday, opening up a spot for Harold Varner III when the action tees off at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco.

    In fairness to him, for a lad who people claim to have no stand up, he gave khabib a bit of a hiding.

    The lads at bellator are probably pretty happy about the amount of publicity this lad got.

    There’s a video that shows danis getting pushed in the crowd by khabibs mate, he pushes the guy back, Khabib sees this and hops over the barrier at ridiculous speed and the brawl commences. I think religion is being used as an excuse. The only indirect insult towards his religion he’s gotten in the entire build up is when he was offered whiskey
