Harrington, Furyk co-lead Grand Slam

MIAMI: British Open champion Padraig Harrington birdied three of the last five holes to share the lead after the first round of the PGA Grand Slam of Golf in Bermuda on Tuesday.

The Irishman, beaten in a playoff for last year's title, fired a 2-under-par 68 to set the pace with American Jim Furyk in blustery conditions at The Mid Ocean Club in Tucker's Town.

Harrington, who has triumphed in three of the last six majors, swept to the top of the leaderboard in the two-round event by picking up shots at the 14th, 16th and the par-five last.
