At the 2009 US Masters, Ireland’s Padraig Harrington will attempt to make it three Majors in a row having won the British Open and USPGA crowns last year. No European golfer has recorded a hat-trick of this kind since 1882.
The last player to win at least three in a row was Tiger Woods in 2000-2001.
