Garcia and Harrington headed to British Open playoff

Golf Betting Lines

07/22/2007 - Carnoustie, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sergio Garcia and Padraig Harrington are headed to a four-hole playoff to decide the British Open Championship at Carnoustie.

The duo, who finished regulation at seven-under-par 277, will play the first, 16th, 17th and 18th holes.

The conclusion conjured up the ghost of Jean van de Velde from 1999.

The last time Carnoustie hosted the Open Championship, Van de Velde squandered a three-shot lead on the 18th hole. He lost to Paul Lawrie in a playoff and both competitors in this year's extra session made a mess of 18 as well.

Harrington came to the 18th hole with a one-shot lead over Garcia and his drive bounced twice on a bridge and fell into the burn. After a drop, Harrington hit his second into the burn short of the green on the left and dropped another one.

Harrington hit his fifth shot four feet past the hole and sank the double- bogey putt to post seven-under par.

Garcia now had a one-shot lead and hit an iron down the fairway at 18. He waited for several minutes as the raker had to tend to the traps that both Chris DiMarco and Paul McGinley found in the group before.

Garcia's second found a bunker short and left. He blasted out to six feet and had that putt to win his first major championship.

Garcia missed the putt and then headed to the four-hole playoff.
