Amateur pupil clubs Harrington

Two weeks after pro golfer Padraig Harrington returned from neck surgery, he was struck in the left elbow by the club of an amateur he was teaching at a clinic.

Harrington required six deep stitches because he said the club hit him so flush that it cut into the bursa sac around the joint. He had to withdraw from the PGA Tour’s FedEx St. Jude Classic in Memphis, and hopes to be out only two weeks.
