Harrington (wrist) out of action until February

Three-time major champion Padraig Harrington will be on the disabled list until February after injuring his wrist in a fall at home last month.

Harrington explained in an update on his website that a seemingly innocuous slip while walking down some stairs left him with not a sprained wrist, but instead a broken bone. As a result, he'll be in a splint for the next few weeks as the injury heals.

That means the 47-year-old will miss two planned European Tour starts in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, although he expects to be healthy to make his 2019 debut at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
