‘The Crosby’
good as ever
Associated Press
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — The
name has changed. It’s now the
AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-
Am. But it’s still Crosby weather.
Rain, wind and cold swept over
the Monterey Peninsula Wednesday
on the eve of the new-old event.
That squally, blustery weather, so
familiar to the veteran touring pros
and celebrity amateurs — some of
whom have been playing here for
three decades — is forecast to con
tinue through the end of the week.
“We’ll give the weather to
AT&T,” said Harry Crosby, son of
the tournament founder, the late
Bing Crosby and his widow Kathryn.
Harry is an investment banker and is
playing as an amateur in the tourna
ment that has been rocked by con
troversy.
In a dispute with the official orga
nizers of the tournament — the
Monterey Peninsula Golf Founda
tion — Kathryn withdrew the
Crosby name from the event that has
grown into one of the most cele
brated on the PGA Tour.
“It’s the same tournament, just a
different name,” said actor James
Garner, a long-time amateur partici
pant. “Nothing else has changed.”
The format remains the same —
each of the 180 pros is paired with
an amateur partner and they play
one round on each of three courses
before the field is cut for the final
round Sunday.
Among the touring pros there are
Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Lee
Trevino, Johnny Miller, Ray Floyd,
Fuzzy Zoeller, Curtis Strange and
Lanny Wadkins, all long-time partic
ipants, and such relative newcomers
as Masters champion Bernhard Lan-
ger of West Germany, British Open
titleholder Sandy Lyle of Scotland,
1985 Crosby winner Mark O’Meara
and the probable favorite, Hal Sut
ton.
In addition to Garner, the ama
teurs include a couple who have
been competing here for more than
20 years, Clint Eastwood and Jack
Lemmon, along with George C.
Scott, Willie Mays and Tom Seaver.
Despite the name change, the
tournament continues to serve the
same purpose, Nicklaus said.
" “The players still think of it as
‘The Crosby,”’ Nicklaus said.

be as good as we were.
“In the second half we let up, and
they got hot. They were getting
open more. It was a combination of
us losing our intensity and letting up
and they’re getting hot.”
The Hogs shot 46.3 percent and
pulled down 32 rebounds in the sec
ond half to pull within eight points
— three times.

point margin of victory.
Marbury led all scorers with 30
points while Gilbert ended the game
with 19 points, 15 rebounds and

“(Wins) don’t come easy that’s for

careless, made some turnovers and
they made a good comeback. Jimmie

night experienced yet another off-
the-court incident involving the G.
Rollie White fans.
As the second half was getting un
derway, Richardson was in a huddle
with his players when a frisbee flew
out of the stands and hit him in the
back of the neck.
That sent him into a rampage.
“I don’t know what it was but I got
hit,” he said after the game. “There’s
no place for that in college basket
ball. If one of the players had turned
around and that had hit him in the
eye, that’s a career-ending injury.”
Richardson said he told the offi
cials an announcement had to be
made to try and get the fans from
throwing things onto the court.
Which is exactly what Metcalf did.
“Please don’t throw anything onto
the floor, but yell like hell,” Metcalf
told the crowd before the start of the
second half.
Richardson said, “That was the
loudest crowd I’ve heard in quite
some time, probably since Kansas.
That always helps a team.”
