Harinordoquy joined Pau in 1999 and was a part of the team the reached the semi-finals in his inaugural season with the club, which resulted in qualification to the European Cup in the next season.

After consistently appearing with the team the next two seasons, in 2002, Harinordoquy made his international debut just before his 22nd birthday in the Six Nations match against Wales and contributed to the team and helped France win the Grand Slam that year.

At the end of 2010, Harinordoquy made the short-list for IRB Player of the Year and was the only player from the Northern Hemisphere to do so.
