Padraig Harrington aims to end a run of seven second place finishes in the past eleven months when he goes into the final round of the Brazil S?o Paulo 500 Years Open at S?o Paulo Golf Club sharing the lead with Welshman David Park.
The Ping G15 Driver And PING Rapture V2 Driver Dubliner fired a third round 65 for an 11 under par total of 202. That seemed sufficient to give Harrington the outright third round lead for the second successive week in Brazil, but two closing birdies earned Park a 68 TaylorMade 09 Burner Driver and Taylormade Burner Plus Driver a total to match the Irishman’s.
Last week in Rio de Janeiro, Harrington was edged out by Roger Chapman in a sudden-death play-off for the Brazil Rio de Janeiro 500 Years Open. Earlier in the Golf Clubs season he had also finished runner-up in the Benson & Hedges Malaysian Open behind Taiwan’s Yeh Wei-tze.
