Agassi plays through critics
‘Critics are cntics, and there will always be critics’
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) —
Andre Agassi doubts that winning
tournaments will win over detractors
who regard him as a brash flash in
the pan.
Agassi beat Stefan Edberg in four
sets Sunday to capture the Interna
tional Players Championships for his
second title this year.
“Critics are critics, and there will
always be critics,” Agassi said.
“They’ll always Find stuff to criticize.
If I silence them in this way, they’re
going to find something else. I’m not
really concerned with that too
much.”
Agassi, who turns 20 next month,
has been faulted for everything
from his denim shorts to his recent
withdrawal from the U.S. Davis Cup
Kerfeld wilts
as Astros dn
game to Mets
team. And when he captured just
one tournament last year after win
ning six during a banner 1988 sea
son, he was labeled as overrated.
But Agassi’s game is on the rise
again. The 6-1, 6-4, 0-6, 6-2 victory
over Edberg avenged a four-set loss
to the Swede two weeks earlier at a
tournament in Indian Wells, Calif.
“I try to get better every time I go
out there,” Agassi said.
The tournament boosted Edberg
from third to second in the world
rankings and Agassi from fifth to
fourth. Agassi was as high as third in
1988 but slipped to seventh last year.
“I don’t feel I turned anything
around until December, when I had
some time off to get away from
things and get renewed emotionally
and physically,” Agassi said. “I think
that was the turning point.”
At times last year, Agassi said, he
considered quitting. But now he’s
working harder than ever at a sport
where stamina often separates win
ners from losers.
“I have a new trainer, Gil Reyes,
and he knows what he’s doing,”
Agassi said. “We really get along
well, he motivates me well and I’m
paying the price, you know?”
Agassi, 5-foot-ll and 155 pounds,
runs a lot and lifts weights to
strengthen both his upper and lower
body. The regimen has created a
more patient player who doesn’t
mind long points, long sets or long
matches.
KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP)-3

three runs each in the eighi
ninth innings Monday to openo
1990 exhibition season with a!
win over the Houston Astros.

The Mets scored three moreti

Tennis team
split pair with
TCU, Baylor
Baseball considering
dove size enforcement
The Texas A&M men’s tennis
team was challenged by more than
just the weather this weekend. Fri
day afternoon, the Aggies lost a
match 7-2 to Texas Christian but on
Saturday, they came back to defeat
Baylor 6-0 despite strong winds and
cold weather.
The Aggies’ split last weekend
gives them a 12-5 record overall and
1-3 in the Southwest Conference.
The Horned Frogs, rated 11th in the
Volvo/Intercollegiate Tennis
Coaches Association rankings, re
main undefeated in conference play.
A&M was led by a stellar perfor
mance by No. 1 singles’ player, se
nior Shaun O’Donovan.
In a hard-fought match Friday,
O’Donovan defeated TCU’s Luis
Ruette, 7-6, 1-6, 7-5. Ruette is
ranked 21st in the country.
“I cannot say enough about the
performance of Shaun O’Donovan,”
head coach David Kent said.
“We were outplayed today,” Kent
said. “We have no excuses.”
PLANT CITY, Fla. (AP) — New
leather is being broken in and new
complaints are breaking out as base
ball moves to eliminate oversized
gloves.
A decision by the American and
National leagues to enforce existing
restrictions on glove size isn’t sitting
well with players accustomed to
snagging fly balls with big webs.
“He hits it and I catch it, that’s the
name of the game,” Reds outfielder
Herm Winningham said. “I don’t
care if I have a bushel basket out
there.”
Reds players learned of the crack
down from a glove manufacturer
who visited training camp. The
gripes started immediately.
“How many balls nave they
caught? Who gives them the right to
say what gloves we can use?” out
fielder Eric Davis said.
The players measured their
gloves to see if they meet the 12-inch
limit from the top of the web to the
palm. Both failed: Winningham’s
glove measured 14 inches, Davis’ was
13.
“I’m using it,” Davis insisted.
The restrictions on glove size have
been on the books for years. NL
spokeswoman Katy Feeney said
Monday the leagues are enforcing
them this year in part because play
ers are using larger gloves.
“More gloves have become over
sized lately,” she said. “If they see a
player with an oversized glove,
they’re going to ask him to use a reg
ulation glove.”
There’s no argument that gloves
have inched well beyond the limits in
recent years. For example, Winning-
ham’s 14-inch model resembles a
softball glove.
“I’ll tell you for certain, last year
some of the gloves were too big,”
Manager Lou Piniella said. “I saw
some gloves on the Yankees that
looked like loaves of bread.”
“It will put more offense into the
game,” Winningham said.

Intercollegiate at Austin’s Barton
Creek Country Club.
“We didn’t play real well,’
head coach Bob Ellis said. "I W
pleased to see some of the players
had some decent rounds.
“But there were no consistent!'
good rounds and no good fur
ishes as far as totals are concer
ned.”
