Padraig Harrington becomes fifth to win Open and Senior Open titles; Rory McIlroy in attendance
Watch highlights from final-round action of the ISPS Handa Senior Open from the Old Course at Sunningdale Golf Club in Berkshire, England. BERKSHIRE, England — Padraig Harrington was so focused on his game that he didn't notice a leaderboard or see Rory McIlroy walking in the gallery Sunday at the ISPS Handa Senior Open. He closed with a 3-under 67 to win his second senior major of the year. Staked to a two-shot lead, Harrington made eagle on the first hole on the Old Course at Sunningdale and no one got closer than two shots the rest of the way as he became the fifth player with a Senior Open and an Open title. He won by three shots over Thomas Bjorn (67) and Justin Leonard (68). 'I'm thrilled to have won but very satisfied that I've won a Senior Open with my two Opens,' Harrington said. 'The fact that only five people have ever done it is quite special. I'm quite proud that I've managed to survive this long in the game.' He joined Darren Clarke, Tom Watson, Gary Player and Bob Charles as players to have won The Open and the senior version. McIlroy walked around for a bit on the London-area course, though it wasn't much of a show. Harrington seized control late in the third round and never gave anyone much of a chance. Bjorn made a late charge to get within two shots, but that ended with a bogey on the 16th. 'The only time I saw a leaderboard was on 18,' said Harrington, who said he asked his caddie for an update on the 17th hole. 'Was fully focused on what I was doing. The Irishman was surprised to hear McIlroy, who is building a home in London, was at Sunningdale for the final round. 'I didn't see him out there. Was he out there?' Harrington said. 'I had the head down all day. I never saw anybody. I had no idea.' Harrington now has 11 titles on the PGA Tour Champions, and he has won multiple times each of the last four seasons. He won the U.S. Senior Open last month at The Broadmoor. And he nearly won the Senior PGA Championship at Congressional until a late two-shot swing gave the title to Angel Cabrera.

Padraig Harrington leads fellow Open champ Justin Leonard at Senior Open
Watch highlights from third-round action of the ISPS Handa Senior Open from the Old Course at Sunningdale Golf Club in Berkshire, England. BERKSHIRE, England — Padraig Harrington birdied the final hole Saturday for another 5-under 65 for a two-shot lead over Justin Leonard going into the final round of The Senior Open as the Irishman goes for his second senior major of the year. Harrington was among four players who had at least a share of the lead at some point during the round on the Old Course at Sunningdale. He seized the lead with birdies on the 13th and 14th hole, and a closing birdie added to his slight lead. Harrington was at 13-under 197. He has been in the United Kingdom the last three weeks for links golf, starting with the Scottish Open. He won the U.S. Senior Open in Colorado a month ago. Leonard, the only PGA Tour Champions player to make the cut last week in The Open at Royal Portrush, also had a second straight 65. Thomas Bjorn had a 67 and was three shots behind. Harrington and Leonard are past Open champions — Leonard at Royal Troon in 1997, Harrington winning the first of two claret jugs a decade later at Carnoustie (2007) and Royal Birkdale (2008). Either one can become the fifth player to win The Open and Senior Open, a feat last accomplished by Darren Clarke in 2022. Steven Alker, a two-time Charles Schwab Cup winner who opened with a 73, tried to get back in the game. He shot 66 and was among four players at 8-under 202, five shots behind. The winner is exempt for the 154th Open next year at Royal Birkdale.

Letters to Sports: Time for Dodgers to make some changes
Between Mookie Betts hustling down the first-base line and Freddie Freeman's walk-off hit, Wednesday's Dodger victory over the Twins brought back great memories of last year's World Series. Hopefully this game will be a catalyst for getting the Dodgers out of the funk they have been in. Moving six-time right field Gold Glover Betts back to right (although his defense at short has been fine) would also propel the Dodgers to — as Tommy Lasorda used to say — taste the fruits of victory more often. Ken FeldmanTarzana Bill Plaschke and Dylan Hernández, where are you guys when we really need you? Why aren't you beating the drum loudly and repeatedly for the return of Mookie Betts to right field? Yeah, I know Mookie says it's not a factor in his slump. Would he ever admit that? Of course not. And Dave Roberts agrees … publicly, but I'd bet privately he feels otherwise. It was a lame idea to begin with. Who did they need to make room for out there, the next Ted Willams? And currently they have someone in Miguel Rojas who's probably a better fielder and at the moment even a better hitter. Please get the front office to do what's right before it's too late. Jack WishardLos Angeles I have never seen a bullpen for a pro baseball team that walked as many batters as the current one for the Dodgers. A relief pitcher who can't throw strikes is like a teacher who can't read. Unless this 'Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight' gets replacements and reinforcements soon they may have trouble making the postseason before it is all over, let alone repeating their championship. Alan AbajianAlta Loma Unfortunately, the Dodgers are not impervious to injury issues. The last time I checked, all teams experience injuries. Hopefully the team will deal with the issues rather than finding excuses as to why they're no longer 'baseball's evil empire.' Patrick KelleyLos Angeles My grandmother said she would like to pitch for the Dodgers. I think she will fit right in. Deborah R. IshidaBeverly Hills Just like the Lakers, the Clippers get their own 40-year-old player in Chris Paul. The Clippers always emulate the Lakers minus the results. Wayne MuramatsuCerritos Regarding the Chargers trying to curry favor and regain the loyalty of their old San Diego fans, some advice: If you want to keep your fans, don't ditch your hometown! Jack WolfWestwood As I watched the majesty and uniqueness of 'The Open' golf championship, my thoughts were of the man who saved this masterpiece of golf from becoming irrelevant. In the late 1950's, most PGA pros were starting to skip this tournament because of the relatively low purse and significant travel involved. Interest in this championship was waning. Then, Arnold Palmer came along and changed everything! In 1960, he traveled to the Open and continued to do so every year for many years during the peak period of his popularity,. As a result, 'The Open' maintained its place as one of the four majors of golf and the rest is history. William R. FadoPacific Palisades The WNBA All Stars wearing T-shirts demanding more money has redefined the word delusional. Since its inception, the WNBA has hemorrhaged money and been subsidized by the NBA. But for the fortuity of the Caitlin Clark phenomenon, the league would likely be bankrupt, not adding expansion teams and signing a lucrative new TV deal. Some free advice: Protect your cash cow (Clark), rather than killing it for hamburgers. Mark S. RothPlaya Vista Another 'action packed' WNBA All-Star Game with airballs, unneeded extra steps, inactive officiating, distracted announcers, and no defense. Just like the NBA.
