Padraig Harrington finds luck in the number 297, wins the Honda Classic

The Honda Classic was anything but a normal event on the PGA Tour. Storms stopped play multiple times over the weekend – and even knocked out a floating scoreboard on Saturday.

A Monday morning finish ended in a playoff with Padraig Harrington taking home the title in a playoff over rookie Daniel Berger.

Remember Paddy? The 43-year-old has fallen on hard times of late. Entering the Honda Classic, he hadn’t won in the U.S. since the 2008 PGA Championship.

But little did the Irishman know, he had the lucky number to help end that skid and start a new streak.

Harrington was the second straight player to be ranked 297^th in the Official World Golf Rankings and win on the PGA Tour.

Last week, James Hahn claimed the Northern Trust Open at Riviera for his first-ever Tour win, with that same No. 297 ranking. Weird, right?

For Harrington, he’s just happy to be back in the winners circle – which includes a trip to The Masters.

He also found a great (and maybe ironic?) way to celebrate his win over Berger -- with a burger at Five Guys:
