Padraig Harrington, of Ireland, has already missed three months this year while recovering from neck surgery. ( Alan Diaz / The Associated Press )Two weeks after 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 was standing to the side, shoulder to shoulder to show the amateur what the swing should look like. “Caught me on the left elbow — middle of the clubface, middle of the elbow,” Harrington said.
