GLENEAGLES, Scotland (AP) — Darren Clarke has birdied the last hole to beat a resurgent Padraig Harrington and win the Senior British Open by one shot. Clarke and Paul Broadhurst were level at 9 under overall after the third round but it was Harrington who soared into contention at Gleneagles with a 3-under 67 to pressure Clarke on the last hole.
