There are some sports stars that absolutely love and embrace Twitter but the three-time major winner Padraig Harrington definitely isn’t one of them.

We can easily forgive his lack of tweets though because Harrington will always remain one of the greatest Irish sportsmen of all time.

It’s a shame though that in this rare moment when he took to Twitter it was to deliver some bad news which could have been much, much worse.

It’s an important few days for the Dubliner as he competes at the McGladrey Classic in a bid to win back his tour card but he’s lucky to even be playing on the course at Sea Island if these images are anything to go by.

Take a look at some of the problems that his plane experienced on the way over.

As for the action on the course, Harrington is currently -1 which is six shots off the joint leaders.
