COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE 9 AOT 2013 PADRAIG HARRINGTON : DE RETOUR À CRANS-MONTANA EN STAR MONDIALE DU GOLF Lors de sa dernière participation en 2000, l’Irlandais Padraig Harrington, alors jeune professionnel de golf, n’avait pas passé le cut. Après 13 ans d’absence, à 41 ans, il revient à Crans-Montana pour disputer cette édition 2013 de l’OMEGA EUROPEAN MASTERS (5-8 septembre) fort d’un fabuleux palmarès : trois victoires de tournois majeurs, onze succès sur l'European Tour et deux sur le US PGA Tour, ainsi que six participations à la Ryder Cup au sein de l’équipe européenne. Né le 31 août 1971, Padraig Harrington a grandi dans la même banlieue de Dublin que Paul McGinley, autre joueur de Ryder Cup. Il se mit au golf à l’âge de quatre ans, puis connut une brillante carrière amateure internationale avant de passer professionnel en 1995. En 1998, Harrington débuta sur le circuit américain où il devint membre régulier de l'US PGA Tour en 2003. Les moments forts de sa prestigieuse carrière furent ses deux victoires au British Open 2007 et 2008, ainsi que son triomphe lors du US PGA Championship 2008, soit trois tournois majeurs. Sans oublier de mentionner qu’il se classa également à neuf reprises entre le second et le dixième rang d’un tournoi de Grand Chelem. Entre 1999 et 2010, Padraig Harrington disputa six fois la Ryder Cup en tant que membre de l’équipe européenne (quatre victoires) et onze fois la World Cup pour l’Irlande. De 1996 à ce jour, il disputa 355 tournois, rien que sur l'European Tour, au cours desquels grâce à sa régularité il se classa à 116 reprises dans les top dix (14 x 1er, 26 x 2e et 11 x 3e) pour un gain total de 23,7 millions d’euros auxquels viennent s’ajouter 22,35 millions de dollars accumulés sur le US PGA Tour ! Les exploits de Padraig Harrington lui valurent de nombreuses récompenses - la plus belle sans doutes - membre d'honneur à vie de l'European Tour.

VIVENDI TROPHY Continental Europe vs. Great Britain and Ireland The Duel, 15-18 September, 2011 Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche (France) Press release – 18th May, 2011 In the spirit of Severiano Ballesteros Vivendi today announced that Jean Rene Fourtou, Chairman of the Vivendi Supervisory Board, has suggested to the PGA European Tour that the "Vivendi Trophy with Seve Ballesteros" be renamed to "The Vivendi Seve Trophy", in memory of Severiano Ballesteros who really knew, amongst other things, how to develop and support the spirit of match play and Golf as an all-round game. During the day's press conference, Scott Kelly, Marketing Director of the PGA European Tour emotionally welcomed the change on behalf of the PGA European Tour. The 2011 Vivendi Trophy The Vivendi Trophy takes place every two years, alternating with the Ryder Cup. The Vivendi Trophy 2011 will take place from 15th to 18th September at the Saint-Nom-La- Bretèche Golf Course. Following the success of its 2009 version, the second edition of this great competition, initiated and organised by CANAL+ EVENTS, will once again put the 10 best players in Continental Europe in a head to head with the elite of Great Britain and Ireland. A new champion at the helm Jose Maria Olazabal will succeed Colin Montgomerie as the Ryder Cup 2012 Team Captain. The Spanish champion will then head the Seve Trophy 2011. "Txema" may, like Monty did in 2009, oversee and observe the two teams.
