Price takes British Open title
75-foot eagle putt on 1 7th gives win over Parnevik
Wmm 1
Monday •July 18, 1994
TURNBERRY, Scotland
(AP) — Nick Price rolled in a
75-foot eagle putt on the 17th
hole Sunday to win a British
Open championship that only
moments earlier seemed to be
in the hands of Jesper
Parnevik.
Price, twice a runner-up in
the British Open, appeared
headed for a second-place fin
ish when Parnevik birdied five
holes on the back nine to get to
12-under par after No. 17.
But the 29-year-old Swede
bogeyed the 18th when he mis
takenly thought he needed a
birdie on the final hole to win.
He found the rough twice and
missed an 8-foot par putt, giv
ing Price his chance.
Parnevik then watched on
television as Price rolled in his
long eagle putt, burying his
head in his left hand as the
ball dropped.
Price then got the par on 18
that eluded Parnevik for a 4-
under-par 66 on the day and
12-under-par 268 for the tour
nament, one stroke better than
Parnevik.
It was the same score posted
by Tom Watson when he won
the British Open on this Ailsa
Course at Turnberry in 1977.
Watson’s determined drive
for a record-tying sixth British
Open championship ended with
consecutive double bogeys at
Nos. 8 and 9.
He shot a 4-over-par 74 and
finished at 4-under 276, eight
strokes behind Price.
Fuzzy Zoeller, trying to be
come one of only nine golfers to
win three different major
championships, was third at
271.
It was sweet revenge for
Price, who twice had a chance
to win the world’s oldest golf
tournament only to finish be
hind Watson in 1982 and Seve
Ballesteros in 1988.
“I waited a long time for
this,” the 37-year-old native of
Zimbabwe said. “I guess 12
years now,” since the 1982 loss.
“I’ve been patient,” he said.
“In the back of my mind I al
ways thought I would have a
chance. I hit some squirrelly
shots. But I played well when I
needed to.”
He did it with a round of two
bogeys, four birdies and the ea
gle at 17 that seemed to take
forever to get to the hole.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP)
training camp injuries -
scrimmages.
But what happened before the Dallas Cow
boys’ annual Blue-White scrimmage Sunday
gave Barry Switzer his biggest fright since he
became head coach.
“It scared hell out of me,” was Switzer’s re
action to a bizarre accident on the St. Ed
ward’s University campus before the scrim
mage at nearby Nelson Field.
Running back Emmitt Smith,
the NFL’s Most Valuable
player and Super Bowl
MVP, suffered a slight
head injury in an accident
involving a John Deere semi
tractor four-wheeler called a
“Gator Buggy.”
Smith went to a local hospital for
treatment and missed the scrim
mage, He was later released and
doctors said he was fine.
Smith was dumped hard on the
ground when the rig driven by full
back Tommie Agee hit Ray Jones, the 63-year-
old unofficial mascot of the Cowboys called
“Crazy Ray.”
“Emmitt’s deal gave me a big scare,” Switzer
said. “We had a great scrimmage today and the
only one who got hurt was on one of those Gator
things. It was a good day except for that.”
Quarterback Troy Aikman showed he was in
mid-season form on his first pass, connecting
with Alvin Harper on a 44-yard pass on the first
play from scrimmage.
Aikman later threw a five-yard touchdown
pass to tight end Jay Novacek. The offense pro
duced only one other touchdown on a one-yard
run by rookie Tony Richardson of Auburn.
“Troy showed what kind of a player he is,”
Switzer said. “He was just great.”
Aikman said “I think we got a lot done for a
scrimmage this early. Blue-White scrim
mages in the past were usually pretty ugly
for the offense. We certainly have a lot of
room for improvement and I
think we did OK.”
Aikman said the Smith
incident gave the team
some concern.
‘Emmitt is going to be fine,”
Aikman said. “I hope we’ve seen the
last of the injuries from those
Gators. Now we know why they call
“Crazy Ray, Crazy Ray.”
Aikman said the warning on
the Gator should slow his team
mates down when they drive
them. The warning says: “Rid
ers can fall off and be killed.”
“We’re going to have to take some precau
tions,” Aikman said.
One of the biggest plays of the day came from
rookie running back Mark Mason of Maryland,
who cut loose for a 60-yard run.
“That’s what rookies have to do, come out and
prove themselves,” Aikman said. “It’s important
for guys to take advantage of the chance they’ve
got. Mason did. It was a tremendous run.”

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Steve
Finley’s grand slam featured an
eight-run second inning and
Shane Reynolds pitched seven
scoreless relief innings after
Doug Drabek was injured, lead
ing the Houston Astros to an 9-
0 victory Sunday over the Pitts
burgh Pirates.
The Astros couldn’t win Fri
day despite a seven-run first in
ning, but there was no Pirates’
comeback this time as Drabek
and Reynolds (7-4) combined on
a five-hit shutout.
The Astros split the four-
game series despite losing the
first two games, including the
11-8 Ipss on Friday that saw
them blow an eight-run edge.
Drabek, a former Pirate, had
pitched two scoreless innings
before being hit by Paul Wagn
er’s fastball just above the right
elbow while squaring to bunt
with Orlando Miller on first in
the third.
Drabek, left the game with a
bruised forearm, but X-rays
were not required and he will

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) —
Dave Stewart, struggling with a
9.42 ERA over his previous
three starts, shut down Texas
on four hits over seven innings
Sunday night to send the Toron
to Blue Jays to a 3-1 victory the
Rangers.
Stewart (6-8) snapped a per
sonal three-game losing streak,
retiring the first 13 Rangers be
fore Juan Gonzalez hit his 14th
homer into the upper deck in
left.
Darren Hall pitched the
ninth for his ninth save.
Stewart struck out eight and
didn’t yield a walk, helping the
Blue Jays to their first victory
ever against Rangers starter
Kenny Rogers (10-5). Rogers en
tered the game 6-0 in 32 career
appearances against Toronto.
Rogers, who’d won eight of
his previous nine decisions, al
lowed two runs and five hits
over seven innings. He struck
out seven and walked three.

hit by Paul Wagner’s fastball.
Drabek immediately fell to the
ground in pain.
As manager Terry Collins
and trainer Dave Labossiere
rushed to the batter’s box,
Drabek clutched his elbow for
several seconds before picking
up his batting helmet and
slamming it to the ground in
disgust.
Pirates manager Jim Ley-
land argued briefly that
Drabek, a former Pirate, swung
at the pitch by bunting through
it. But home plate umpire
Dana Demuth awarded Drabek

Drabek (10-5), an All-Star,

Gonzalez, who also doubled
in the seventh, became the first
player to homer into the left
field upper deck at The Ball
park in Arlington with his 432-
foot shot.
Despite its growing populari
ty, soccer still has many critics
who consider the game too slow.
Guerrieri said the games’ critics
do not know the game.
“Most of the people bashing
the sport are those who have
never watched a game,” he said.
“Everyone I’ve talked to said
they are pleasantly surprised
with the World Cup. They actu
ally enjoyed watching the
games.”
The Cup’s popularity may
have spilled over into the U.S.
In April a new professional soc
cer league will begin play in the
United States. Guerrieri said
the timing is right for the new
league.
“If there is any time to start a
new league, this is it,” Guerrieri
said.

“The first day we had 12 hours
of negotiations,” he said. “By the
time the deal was finalized, we
had spent 19 hours with negotia
tors for the TV stations. It was
interesting to have some of their
big people come and talk to us.”
The only other parts of the
new conference that are finalized
are football and basketball
league-divisions. There will be
two divisions in football and bas
ketball. One division will be the
northern teams. The other will
be the four former Southwest
Conference schools (A&M, Baylor
University, the University of
Texas and Texas Tech Universi
ty), Oklahoma and Oklahoma
State.
A&M’s new football schedule
will include eight conference
games, five against division
teams and three against teams
in the northern division.
Groff said in a 4-year span
every team in the new conference
will come to Kyle Field at least
once.
Other issues, such as a foot
ball playoff, a post-season bas
ketball tournament, schedules
for all sports and revenue-shar
ing are still on the table.
Groff said the agenda for the
August meeting of athletic direc
tors includes making football
schedules, marketing and the
bowl-coalition situation. The re
cent decision by the NCAA to
limit the number of New Year’s
day bowl games to four could
have an effect on the decision to
stage a Big 12 football champi
onship game, Groff said.
“The general feeling right now
is that we won’t have a playoff in
football,” he said. “If both the
Cotton and Orange bowls make
it, we could be sending two teams
to major bowl games every year.
It’s best not to have a playoff so
we can have more teams qualify
for a national championship.”
The amount of negotiations
and work involved with creating
the new conference is worth it,
Groff said, because the move to
the Big 12 is a totally positive
change for every program on
campus. He said all the coaches
were enthusiastic and that he
has not heard one bad thing.
“This new league could easily
be the best in the country,” he
said.
