NEW YORK — Convincingly de
stroying the label of loser, Ivan
Lendl thrashed top-seeded John
McEnroe 7-6, 6-3, 6-4 Sunday to
capture the U.S. Open men’s singles
championship.
The victory gives Czechoslovakia
a sweep of the major titles in this
Grand Slam tournament, Hana
Mandlikova winning the women’s
singles on Saturday by edging Mar
tina Navratilova 7-6, 1-6, 7-6.
And another Czechoslovak shared
in the women’s doubles
championship as Helena Sukova tea
med with West Germany’s Claudia
Kohde-Kilsch to defeat defending
champions Navratilova and Pam
Slmver. Navratilova later teamed up
with Heinz Gunthardt of Switzer
land to win the mixed doubles
crown.
But Sunday belonged to Lendl,
who was in the championship match
of America’s premier tennis event
for the fourth straight year. And this
time, he emerged a winner, only his
second Grand Slam title.
Ranked No. 2 in the world behind
McEnroe, Lendl was making his sev
enth Grand Slam final appearance.
Prior to Sunday, he had won only
the French Open in 1984 — beating
McEnroe.
Lendl’s booming serves and pow
erful groundstrokes kept McEnroe
on the defensive. But he also bested
the New York left-hander at the net,
where McEnroe normally reigns su
preme.
Seeking his fifth U.S. Open
crown, the McEnroe who was on the
Stadium Court Sunday was not the
same McEnroe who put on a tennis
clinic in his quarterfinal victory over
Sweden’s Joakim Nystrom. McEnroe
was tentative, often out of position
and never had his powerful serve
working.
He seemed to be a step late, his re
turns of service set up easy points for
Lendl, and his volleys lacked the
crispness that usually converts them
into winners.
A lot of it may have been due to
Lendl’s overwhelming superiority.
He sent winner after winner past the
struggling McEnroe, ripping back
hands and forehands cross-court
and down the line. When both were
at the net, Lendl appeared to win
most of the points.
It was the type of victory that
could finally wipe away the years of
frustration for Lendl, the whispers
that he could win all of the small
tournaments, but couldn’t win the
big ones.
He has done that now, and he has
done it with panache.
As for the other Czech, Mandliko-
va’s a big girl now — but she’s not up
there with the biggest yet.
She has won major tournaments
before — including the French
Open in 1981 — but she has not re
ceived the acclaim.
“She has definitely matured as a
K erson,” Navratilova said following
er loss to Mandlikova Saturday in
the finals, “and it’s showing on the
court ... and that’s why she was able
to put back-to-back matches like
beating Chris (Evert Lloyd in the
semifinals) and then me in the final.
That only comes with the years.”
“I think I serve better now and
I’ve matured since my younger
years,” Mandlikova said. “I’m still
only 23 years old and I hope I still
can go on longer.”
HOUSTON — Houston’s Mike
Rozier scored his first two NFL
touchdowns, the second with 25 sec
onds left in the game, to rally the
Oilers to a 26-23 victory Sunday over
the Miami Dolphins, the defending
AFC champions.
Rozier’s game-winner came on a
1-yard dive after Miami backup
quarterback Don Strock replaced
Dan Marino in the fourth quarter
and threw a 67-yard touchdown pass
to Mark Duper to give the Dolphins
a 19-16 lead with 8:43 tq play.
Houston quarterback Warren
Moon hit Drew Hill with a 48-yard
pass to start the winning drive.
The Oilers faced fourth down at
the Miami 9 and Moon’s pass sailed
incomplete in the end zone, hitting
Dolphins’comerback Fulton Walker
in the back. Walker was called for
pass interference, giving the Oilers
the ball on the 1-yard-line.
Two plays later, Rozier ran in for
the winning score.
Strock entered the game on the
first play after Bud Brown had re
covered a fumble by Houston’s Mike
Rozier at the Dolphin 33. He found
Duper over the middle and the fleet
receiver cut to the sidelines and
scored with 8:43 to play.
Marino, who ended a 37-day con
tract holdout early last week, started
against the Oilers and directed the
Dolphins to a 16-9 lead in the third
quarter on field goals of 33, 36 and
23 yards by Fuad Reveiz and William
Judson’s 61-yard interception re
turn.
After the Oilers returned from in
termission trailing 16-9, Tony Zen-
dejas kicked a 46-yard field goal and
Rozier, playing in his first NFL game
after two seasons in the United
States Football League, ran three
yards on the first play of the fourth
quarter for a go-ahead touchdown.
On the Oilers’ next possession,
Rozier fumbled, setting Strock in
motion.
The Oilers scored in the second
quarter when Butch Woolfolk
circled out of the backfield, caught a
pass from Moon and raced 80 yards
for a touchdown and Zendejas
kicked a 35-yard field goal.
Marino completed 13 of 24 passes
for 159 yards. He was intercepted
twice by cornerback Steve Brown.
Strock was near-perfect in his
backup role, completing 6 of 7
passes for 132 yards and one touch
down.
Woolfolk, obtained in the off-sea
son from the New York Giants, led
the Oilers in rushing and receiving
with 60 yards on 12 carries and 120
yards on three receptions.
Moon finished with 12 comple
tions on 17 attempts for 270 yards.
Woolfolk, in his first regular sea
son game as an Oiler, caught his
touchdown pass behind safety Mike
Kozlowski, who fell down on the
play, and then outran cornerback
Paul Lankford down the sidelines
for the touchdown.
Miami defensive end Doug Bet
ters then vaulted in to block the ex
tra point.
Marino started the game and hit
three straight passes before leaving
' fly '
the game briefly with a slight injury.
Strock came on to hit a 29-yard pass
to Mark Clayton to set up Reveiz’ 33-
yard field goal.

SWC earns its victories
in ’85 football openers
Associated Press
Three Southwest Conference
football teams posted hard-earned
victories over the weekend, but the
Houston Cougars proved once again
they can’t get fired up until the
championship race starts.
No. 3 SMU fell behind 17-14 in
the third period before outlasting
surprising UTEP 35-23.
Texas Tech overcame a 31-10
deficit to beat New Mexico 32-31.
Baylor bounced Wyoming 39-18
with the help of Thomas Everett’s
75-yard punt return.
Houston, which hasn’t won a non
conference game on the road since
1979, fell 31-24 to the Tulsa Golden
Hurricane.
SMU, recently slapped hard with
NCAA sanctions for illegal recruit
ing and payments to athletes, looked
like a team that been bothered by
distractions.
“The flatness was from within,”
said Mustang tailback Reggie Du-
pard, who scored on two touchdown
runs and gained 131 yards on 20
carries. “We prepared hard, but we
weren’t ready to play the game.”
Halfback Gerald Bean’s two-point
conversion in the final two minutes
gave Tech its first victory over New
Mexico in four years. Bean broke
three tackles to score the game-win
ner.
“I knew 1 had to do it,” Bean said.
“I saw three of their jerseys I had to

Tech Coach Jerry Moore said,
“There was never any doubt we were
going for two. We never considered
anything else.”
Timmy Smith, a native of New
Mexico, uncorked touchdown runs
of 31 and 42 yards to help the Red
Raiders come from behind.
Everett’s punt return for a touch
down was Baylor’s first such score
since Don Huggins ran 73 yards
against TCU in 1970.
“My run seemed to spark our of
fense,” Everett said. “I knew we
to do something big to get our j
going.”
Wyoming Coach Al Kincaids
“You have to credit Baylor. The
came up with the big plays.”
Houston had a massive defensjj
failrue as Tulsa rushed for 335 yards
and passed for 146 more.
“We just weren’t pulling to
gether,” Houston tackle T.J. Turner
said.
