Madam, - After Padraig Harrington's brilliant victory in the British Open, it is great to see that he still has his feet on the ground and has not forgotten his roots, as shown by his visit to Stackstown Golf Club the day after his victory. This man is but a true ambassador for Ireland worldwide, with the humanity and humility he has shown since his victory. It would be wonderful to see a civic reception in his home city to mark his great sporting achievement. - Yours, etc,
COLM ROWSOME, Kells Road, Crumlin, Dublin 12.
