Golf - Retief Goosen having a go at poor Paraig Harrington

    That South African golfer Retief Goosen who currently leads the order of merit in the European money tour has been having a go at Paraig Harrington recently -

    http://breaking.examiner.ie/2002/10/23/story73844.html

    He's called him slowest on the tour and also called him desperate...

    I'm a big fan of Harringtons , he's a great golfer and is honest and a great rep. for Ireland.

    I reckon Goosen is trying to use "Alex Ferguson" type tactics through the media to try and put auld Paraig off....

    It may work but hopefully , it'll have opposite effect and boost him so that he goes on to win European Order of Merit

    What do people think...

    Well Padraig bottled it again. I know he did the business at the Ryder Cup recently, but he does always seem to fúck up on the big stage.

    Harrington does choke at times, hell he's finished second
    more times a one season than any other player I belive
    (that was last year).
