PINEHURST, N.C. — Padraig Harrington never thought much about the World Golf Hall of Fame when he was growing up in Ireland. He learned about it hearing references to so many great players around him. And now the three-time major champion is joining them. Harrington was part of the Class of '24 inducted Monday night into the Hall of Fame. It's the first ceremony at the Hall of Fame's new home in Pinehurst, North Carolina, after moving the artifacts from St. Augustine, Florida. Also inducted was LPGA star Sandra Palmer. Tom Weiskopf, Bev Hanson and Johnny Farrell are going in posthumously.
