Sergio Garcia is in the midst of a midlife crisis and a huge golf slump. He was dating Greg Norman’ daughter Morgan-Leigh and couldn’t have been happier. Now she’s dumped him and his golf game has gone down the toilet. In 2009 he’s made six of eight cuts with his best finish coming at the Honda Classic where he finished T-13. Besides that he’s finished higher than T-22 in the last five tournaments. His best US Open finish came in 2005 where he finished T-3. After that he missed the cut in 2006-2007 and in 2008 he came in T-18. Sergio has lost his golf game and if you have deep pockets I’d put everything on Padraig Harrington. It’s easy money!
Padraig Harrington is a three time Major winner, and has won three of the last nine Majors. He recently won the British Open back to back in 2007-08 and he won the 2008 PGA Championship, considered the fifth Major. His best finishes at an US Open was T-5 in 2000 and 2006. But he has struggled in his last two appearances, in 2007 he failed to make the cut and last year he finished T-36. He’s made seven of 12 cuts this year with no wins; has three Top 25 finishes. The weather is expected to be rainy, cloudy with some sun; this is perfect weather for a European player such as Irishman Padraig Harrington.
