No. 1 tennis player, Jose-Luis
Clerc, could be fined by the
World Championship Tennis
organization for voluntarily
defaulting in the final of the
River Oaks International
tournament Sunday, giving
Czechoslovakia’s Ivan Lendl the
title and $100,000 first prize.
Two tournament officials
Monday prepared reports for
WCT Executive Director Owen
Williams in Dallas on Clerc’s
“unprofessional” actions.
Clerc failed to report to

transferred from the unlighted
Stadium Court by tournament
referee Zeno Pfau as it began to
get dark at 5:45 p.m. Sunday.
Clerc left the tournament site
immediately and spoke with
reporters at his hotel late
Sunday.
He said he had been told by
I Pfau and umpire Gene
1 Stansbury the match would not
be transferred until 6:30 p.m. At
the time of the transfer, Clerc
was rallying en route to a
probable fourth-set win that
would even the match.
“I asked the umpire when the
match would be moved,” Clerc
said. “He said he didn’t know.
Then he spoke to the referee
(Pfau), who said 6:30. That’s
what he told me. If he had said
10 minutes to 6 the first time, I
would have said, ‘OK.’ I never
make any trouble in my life.”
It was on Lendl’s request at
5:45 the match be moved. He
told Pfau darkness was causing
him to miss his serves.
! Pfau vehemently denied
]Clerc’s version.
“He (Clerc) asked the chair
(Stansbury) if play would
continue on that court until
6:30. The umpire told him it
certainly wouldn’t continue past
6:30. Considering the overcast
conditions, it would have been
unreasonable to go until 6:30 on
that court.”
Pfau and tournament
operations director Jane Cooke
submitted separate reports “of
the facts,” Cooke said Monday.
“Most people agree it w'as
highly unprofessional on his

the dreams of NBA players.
Only Wilt Chamberlain, with
seven straight scoring crowns
(1960-66), has won more titles
than George Gervin of the San
Antonio Spurs. Gervin won the
NBA scoring championship for
the fourth time in six years, the
league announced Monday.
“Being behind only Wilt in
scoring titles means something
to me,” Gervin said. “I don’t
really know right now. It’ll take a
while just to see w'hat it means.”
According to the NBA’s final
regular-season statistics, Gervin
averaged 32.3 points per game
this year and scored 40 or more
points 16 times. A 6-7 guard,
Gervin won three consecutive
titles beginning in 1978 but was
dethroned last year by Adrian
Dantley of Utah, who finished
third this season with a 30.3
average. Free agent-to-be Moses
Malone of Houston was second
at 31.1.
This is the first time since
1975 the NBA has had three
30-point scorers in a season.
Malone, who according to one
report is asking for a $3 million
annual salary, repeated as the
league’s top rebounder with a
14.7 average. He was followed
by Jack Sikma of Seattle (12.7)
and Buck Williams of New
Jersey (12.3). Williams had
1,005 rebounds and is the first
rookie to pass the 1,000 mark
since 1972.
Johnny Moore, who was cut
by San Antonio in 1979 but won
a job with the Spurs a year later,
led the NBA in assists (9.6).
