Tiger Woods will break Jack Nicklaus's major record of 18 wins according to Padraig Harrington.

Padraig Harrington has claimed that Tiger Woods will break the record for most major wins.

Jack Nicklaus currently holds the record with 18 wins ahead of Woods on 14, but the former world number one has not won a major since his 2008 US Open triumph.

However, Harrington insists that Woods still has the quality to add to his tally.

The Irishman said: "I'd be still backing him to beat Jack's record, absolutely. If he turns up and plays well, he's going to win. He's in the position that he knows his best game is a winning game.

"There's no question he will win plenty going forward. There are other guys out there, [but] their best game ain't going to win them. His is still a winning game."

Both players are currently competing in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am in California.
