Padraig Harrington losing his sponsors
As we know Tiger Woods lost many sponsors by the bad influence of his sex scandal. But what happens to this guy which also losing Callaway x22 his sponsors, let's see today's golf news.
The Bank of Ireland's three-year-endorsement deal with Harrington is due to end in May and the bank has given notice that it will not be renewing it.
But in this case, the termination of his contract has nothing to do with Harrington's behaviour - or even with the difficulty he is having in winning any further tournaments since his double triumph in 2008 when he claimed both the Golf Club for Sale Open and PGA majors (Titleist 2010 AP2 Irons).
Rather, says the Bank, it has everything to do with the recession and its need to cut costs and show that it is doing so in the face of a critical public examination at a moment in time when the British taxpayer's ownership TaylorMade R9 Irons of the bank has risen to 15.7%. (TaylorMade R9 Irons is on a big sale.)
It has ben reported that in return for an annual payment in the region TaloyMade R11 of €400,000, Harrington wore the Bank's name on his shirt and also played in three Bank of Ireland corporate outings per year.
The Ryder Cup star is believed to have Ping G15 11 other companies who sponsor him in one way or another.

I purchased these to have something more forgiving since I was playing Ping I3 blades. Since I don't play as often I decided to buy something that would dampen mishit. I have a personal driving range and I found that my swing fault followed me, go figure :) Anyway, my 1st round was a disaster, but it wasn't the clubs. After the disaster I practiced all week with them, along with a major revision in my setup and shot 73 in my second round with them. So, they were redeemed. One thing I've noticed is that the offset is hidden well in the design of the club. I have never cared for offset, but it's almost invisible in this club. They feel really good in my hands and the thicker sole from the Ping's now seem normal.
