Following a disappointing bogey on the 18th by Spaniard Sergio Garcia, he and Ireland's Padraig Harrington will head to a playoff. The British Open's playoff will consist of four holes in stroke play.

Both players finished 72 holes at 7 under par, but both finished the 18th of their rounds poorly. Harrinton found water and double bogeyed, relying on a tough one put after a magnificent recovery shot. However, Sergio Garcia smashed a spectacular long iron to the dead center of Carnoustie's 18th fairway. From there, Garcia put his approach into a bunker, but received a great lie. Unfortunately, Garcia was not able to make the putt after a decent out from the bunker.

Both players are searching for their first major championship, but no matter who wins, Europe will have its first major championship in nine years.

Personally, having had the opportunity to work in Harrinton's group during the 2007 U.S. Open at Oakmont, I will be rooting for Paddy.
