  • Intro:

    Padraig Harrington ended a four-year winning drought with a two-shot win over Thailand's Thanyakon Khrongpha at the Indonesia Open on Sunday (7 December).

    Script:

    Back to winning ways, after a four year wait.

    An enormous relief for Padraig Harrington.

    SOUNDBITE: Padraig Harrington, Indonesia Open winner

    "Winning is really a good habit and I haven't been getting contention - you could see that from the front nine today.

    A triple major champion, Harrington can now add the Indonesia Open to his trophy cabinet.

    The Irishman took advantage of nearest rival Thanyakon Khrongpha's ill fortune.

    The Thai had a disastrous final hole, robbing him of a chance of a playoff against Harrington.

    He finished two shots behind as Harrington rolled in for par at the 18th to go 16-under after a closing round of 71.

    SOUNDBITE: Padraig Harrington, Indonesia Open winner

    "I kept telling myself on the back nine, you know, I just kept going 'right this is where you want to be, you want to be in contention', even if it doesn't go my way today, this is exactly what I want. If I'm going to go on and win more tournaments, you've got to put yourself in that uncomfortable position. You know that kept my spirits open and that was very important. I worked really hard in the mental side this week."

    It's his first tournament win since the Johor Open in 2010.
