Harrington out of automatic Ryder places

Pádraig Harrington and Paul Casey both drop out of automatic qualifying positions in the European Ryder Cup table following today's Madrid Masters.

Luke Donald's victory takes him above Harrington on the world points list from which the first four members of Colin Montgomerie's side will come.

And by finishing third Italian Francesco Molinari moves into one of the five spots on offer from European Tour earnings, leaving world number eight Casey in need of a wild card as things stand.
