Padraig Harrington Wins Simmons Bank Championship
Padraig Harrington secured his third win of the season on the PGA Tour Champions by claiming the inaugural Simmons Bank Championship at Pleasant Valley Country Club. The 53-year-old Irishman shot three rounds of 67 or better, finishing at 17-under-par 199 to beat Y.E. Yang by two strokes.
The victory marks Harrington’s ninth career title on the senior circuit and moves him to fourth in the Charles Schwab Cup standings. With the season-ending championship set for November 7-10 at Phoenix Country Club, Harrington is well-positioned to contend for the season-long title, which he last won in 2022.
