Padraig Harrington enjoyed an encouraging start at the Charles Schwab Cup Championship on the Champions Tour last night.
He’s one shot off the lead on five-under-par in Arizona, after an opening round of 66.
The Dubliner still has a chance to win the Charles Schwab Cup, which is the Order of Merit title.
But Steven Alker – who leads the overall standings – has a share of the lead on six-under.
Harrington must win this week’s tournament to have any chance of reaching the top of the rankings.
