Padraig Harrington: I loo-se it when fans keep offering up dirty hands to shake in the toilets

Golf star Padraig Harrington absolutely loo-ses it when fans keep shaking his hands straight after using the toilet.

The Dublin sports legend finds it hard to say no when people come up to him in public restrooms – even knowing they haven’t washed their hands.

And Padraig told Goss.ie it leaves him having to run straight back into the jacks to get rid of the potential faeces transfer.

“Personally I always find this one the difficult one is the guy waiting in you in the toilet when you’re in the public rest room,” he said.

Love: Padraig and his wife Caroline

“You know he’s waiting and you know he hasn’t washed his hands and you shake his hand and you have to leave and then go back in obviously because you can’t go back and wash your hands.”

And Padraig admitted that isn’t the worst of it – as he keeps getting lots of “mad letters”.

He told Goss.ie: “I obviously get the mad letters plenty of mad letters – not proposals no I don’t fit into that category – but I get a lot of people telling me what to do.

“They could be all sort of things, like insane type things – I do keep those ones.”

Fans: Brendan O’Carroll and wife Jenny are fans of Padraig

However the sports star insisted that he never has a problem with it because he understands that fans get “excited.”

He added: “At the end of the day sometimes people get excited and they do silly things but I’d never ever have a problem with anything.”

He was speaking at the launch of An Evening With Padraig Harrington in aid of the ISPCC and The Padraig Harrington Charitable Foundation.

He will give the audience exclusive insights into his career, his major wins and his participation in the Ryder Cup, with tickets on sale at Ticketmaster now.
