At present, in his first round of the 2012 Masters, Padraig has enjoyed success matching World No1. golfer Rory McIlroy’s opening 71 proving that he is capable of great results throughout this tournament. “It looks like I turned a little bit of a corner with the putting and I’ve been playing very nicely besides that.” The three time Major winner Harrington maintained he is calm and confident ahead of the second round.

We are all behind Padraig and the great work he does as a professional golfer both on and off the course. He added: “I’m very relaxed. My whole game, I know it’s good, and at the end of the day I’ll just let it happen, play away and see what the result is.”

Best of Luck Padraig from everyone here at Blarney Woollen Mills
