Padraig Harrington, who won the British Open and the PGA Championship, was named the PGA Tour’s Player of the Year for 2008. Earlier this week, Harrington won the same honor from the Golf Writers Association of America. Harrington beat Tiger Woods who won four of the six tournaments he entered, including the U.S. Open, before being sidelined with a knee injury. Vijay Singh, Camilo Villegas and Kenny Perry also were on the ballot for player of the year. In a vote by tour players, Andres Romero of Argentina won the rookie of the year award and Dudley Hart won comeback player of the year.Bernhard Langer was Champions Tour player of the year and Brendan de Jonge winning the Nationwide Tour award. The golf writers name Jay Haas as the Champions Tour player of the year and Lorena Ochoa as the LPGA Tour player of the year.
