Two years ago the Irishman won this event at Oakland Hills - it was his third major success in just six starts and he was admired all over the world for his ability to peak during the back nine on Sunday of the biggest events. Since then he has struggled. In 2009 he continued to work hard on his game and it was only at the WGC Bridgestone Invitational, one week prior to his defence of this event, that he found any form. In second place throughout as he chased a second successive USPGA crown, ironically he fell backwards on the back nine and finished 10th. He hasn't won since he took this title in 2008 but in recent weeks has looked more like the old Harrington. "I've been comfortable with my game for a while," he said after finishing second in the Irish Open. "I just have to trust it a little bit more; just let it happen and not chase."
