Harrington defends "Nice Europeans" claim

Padraig Harrington has defended claims by Englands Nick Faldo that the Europeans are too nice to win golfs major tournaments. Suggestions by Faldo that the the lack of competitive edge is one of the reasons that there have been no British or European winners since Paul Lawrie in 1999 have been hushed down by Harrington claiming that all Europeans have different approaches to their respective games. Padraig believes that Europe will not have to wait long for another major winner. Whatever the outcome at the end of this major, the winner will have had to work really hard to claim the top prize...My personal view is that friendships on the golfing circuit have nothing to do with the end result.
