A winner of three major championships and a total of 26 professional tour titles throughout his career, Padraig Harrington is one of the leading European golfers of his generation. The 40-year-old won consecutive Open Championships in 2007 and 2008 and also took home the 2008 PGA Championship to secure a position as Europe's number one player. An inconsistent last couple of years has seen Harrington dip out of the world's top 50 of late, but remains a force to be reckoned with. A quick look at Padraig Harrington in the bag reveals the Irishman endorses Wilson Staff golf clubs.
