Padraig Harrington just had too much firepower over the weekend at the U.S. Senior Open, shooting 66-66 at Scioto Country Club to collect his fifth victory in this major championship in the last five years. He also won in 2022 and last year.<\/p>\n
The 54-year-old Irishman now owns four senior majors and has finished first or second place in nine of them since 2022. Harrington shot 12-under 268 total and topped Stewart Cink by four shots. Cink has won the other two senior majors this year, the Senior PGA and the Tradition.<\/p>\n
Harrington earned $800,000 from the overall $4 million purse. Cink took home $432,000 for the runner-up performance. Other finishes of note include Ian Poulter (fourth), Pat Perez (T-8), Henrik Stenson (T-11), Ernie Els (T-11), Michael Block (T-31) and Haymes Snedeker, Brandt\u2019s brother, who tied for 36th place and was the low amateur.<\/p>\n
(Note: each professional who missed the cut earned $4,000.)<\/p>\n
