Rich.rd Dunn Daily Pilot NEWPORT Bf.ACH -It's appropriate that the final round of the Toshiba Sen· tor Oassic will be played the night of the Oscars. . After all, the PGA Champions Tour Marshall Duffield event at Newport Beach Country Oub has long song-and· dance tles that date well beyond the Gary McCord-John Jacobs playoff scene of 1999. From an operational standpoint with Hoag Hospital as the manag- ing charity, the Toshi- ba Senior Oassic can be traced back to the early 1970s, when Bing Crosby got the ball rolling on a satellite tour event called the Crosby Southern Pro-Am. Crosby, good buddies with Newport Beach's Marshall Duffield, felt bad the golfers up north in Pebble Beach who didn't make the cut at his former Crosby National Pro-Am and had no- where to play over the weekend. Alld so Duffield and Charley Hester started the "little Crosby." Duffield had urged Crosby for years, local lore has it, to link a two·day mini· tour stop to his Pebble Beach clam- bake, and, one toasty nlght during a Ouistmas party Crosby said yes. Crosby could now take care of the weather-beaten and tour-beaten golfers who were stuck in an empty ho- tel room in pricey Monterey or Carmel. An avid golfer himself, Bing wanted to give them hope, lift their spirits, pro· vide another purse for these guys, some of whom were broke, lonely and out of birdie putts, never getting past the cut at the former Crosby National Pro-Am. Uke ~ great entertainer. Crosby gave them good theater on a budget, set up ln Newport Beach by two distinguished gentlemen, Duffield and Hestut who made service a prior· ity for golf's minor leaguers. aspiring to crack the PGA Tour and journeymen looking for a weekend out. It was long before the days of the Nationwide Tour (or Buy.com or Nike and Hogan tours before it). Crosby gave the pro-am ln Newport Beach a prize of $1,700 for the winner, no chump change for a journeyman golf pro or some young hotshot out of college. The first tournament was a success with 72 amateurs and l:red MacMurray of "My Three Sons" television fame as a celebrity player. Back then, amateurs were charged only $350-to play in the Two major players iMttl the 552 Club ri 1989, Coo1ney Emery, left, Gene Baum. Pro-Am. but few signed up.

PRO-AM CELEBRITIES Name dropping in N eWport Each year, celebrities from Hollywood and the sports world come out of the woodwork for local pro-ams, some as a . surprise, like slugger McGwire last year. Richard Dunn Daily Pilot NEWPORT BEACH -Stars have aJ. ways been linked to golf in Newport Beach. While entertainers such as Ray Otarles, Willie Nelson, tf uey Lewis and Barbara Mandrel have performed at past parties for the Toshiba Senior Oassic or former Newport Qassic Pro-Am, the pro-am events for both have had no shortage of celebrities teeing it up. Last ~ear, Mark McGwire quietly showed up and played in a Monday pro-am round, while an endless list of former and current NFL players have dominated the pro-am landscape at Newport Beach Country Club, which hosted all 23 Newport Oassic Pro- Ams and all but on·e week of Toshiba Senior Oassic Pro-Ams. The Newport Oassic, a now-de· funct mini-tour event, served as sort of a precursor to the Toshiba Senior Classic, since the same volunteer group has operated as tournament manager for Hoag Hospital. In 1996, comedian Ri ck Rockwell served as master of ceremo1l(e£.of the Newport Classic gala and played in the pro-am, during which he said. UThe two best balls I hit all day were when I stepped on a rake." Rockwell made headlines in March 2001, a litrle more than a year after the television i.how "Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?" and Rock· welt's subsequent annulment froJTI Darva Conger. Considered by many to be the low point of the "reali1y TV" phenomenon, the show had a flock of women ready 10 compt•1e for the chance to marry multt-milliona1re Rockwell, and. in the end, everyone was talking aboul the SLandal be· tween them.

LOOKING BACK Is there any no stalgi a left? Champions Tour, formerly the Senior PGA Tour, is different now and can no longer count on the marquee names from the old school. ftlchard Dunn Daily Pilot NEWPORT BEACI I -What was once a good ol' boy network of senior golfers has ~me per- haps less nostalgic and more c:ompetitive.

Luxury yachts and multimillionaire lots. There are Cadil- lacs filling the players-only section or the par.Icing lot at Newpon Beach Coun- try Cub. Everywhere players rum, their shoes are shined their bags are picked up, their every little detail is in order. They would arrive here for the Toshiba Senior Oassic and stroll around in golf carts, one of the unique attributes of this 50- and-over senior golf tour -the PGA Olampions Tour. But life isn't gening any easier for these guys. For the first time, tour officials have changed the privilege of using a golf cart for the seniors. They are now en- couraged to walk during official tourna- ment events. Players can still cruise along and relax in a golf cart, but the tour is clearly try- ing to look younger and more appealing and certainly more competitive. Part of that effon includes the use of golf carts. The new cart rules are particularly in- teresting and will no doubt cause some confusion along the way. Caddies are no longer permitted to ride in a cart at any time during an official round, and bags are also banned. Golf cart weather cov- ers and heaters have also been axed. The 2003 Champions Tour Golf Cart Rules and Guidelines stipulates a con- sistent no-cart provision in 01ampions Thur Major Championships and the Champions Tour Championship. Players and caddies, however, are allowed to ride in carts during pro-am and practire • rounds. Other modifications and fan-friendly initiatives that will affect the Toshiba Senlor Oassic and every other tour event include a lottery for fans to be- come an honorary observers inside the ropes. and also a Caddie of the Day pro- motion. Some new tour' initiatives that the Toshiba Oassic implemented last year to great success were the dropping of the ropes behind the final group (all three days) and post-round player Q & A session with the fans.

GOLF TIPS A guide to better golf ··· Champions Tour players offer some insight to improving your game. •Johnm.nd "Want to hit more fairways off the tee7 Stand on the correct side of the tee box. If you're a fader of the ball (left to right if you're a right-hander), stand as close as you CaA ta the right tee marker. If you draw the ball (right to left), tee the ball up on the left hand side of the tee box. This worts, believe me.· •Jim Dent ·1n order to hit the ball a long way, you heed to have the right equipment for your swing. The right golf shafts can help you generate club head speed in the hitting area. Most amateurs probably. play with shafts on their drivers that are too stiff for them. If you go to-a softer shaft in the driver, the club won't have to wort as hard to k.idt et the bottom, and It just might give you 20 extra yards oft the tee:' • Bruce Reisher ·Many of my pro-em partners miss key short putts during their rounds because their eyes are moving dunng the stroke. As a result their heads are not steady. What I try to do from four feet and closer is to focus on the ball and then listen for it to go in the hole. Try this tip, and you'll be amazed at how many putts you'll make it If you leam to uae the ears during your putting stroke, you'll become a better short putte(." •Hllelrwin •Proper body position and alignment are key ingredients toward producing a good golf swing. In this game, you have to be able to hit the ball where you are aimed. In o.rder to do that, you also have to get in the right body position et the start of the swing. Most amateurs bend over too much et the waist. They need to keep · their becb straight and have some ftex in their legs so they can get good arm extension through the hitting area. I consistently see too many amtteurs aim far to the right and play the game from basically a doeed stance. Right-handers should think about aiming down the left aide of each fairway and at the left side of each green .. With your shoulders opened slightly and your stance opened, you can swing the dub down the target line rather than aaoss your body. You should hit more ~id shots in the right direction." •en..u.tzb •rm a real betiever in playing one type of shot all the time. In my caM, my swing produces a fade, or a consistent slightly left-to-right ball flight I see quite a few amateurs who try to change their bell flight on the practice tee and go ttWaY from their normal shot petlems. My recommendation Is that amateurs find one swing that Is comfortable and produoes ~id contact.

I can always find a way to play the hole • with my normal fade. If you follow my advice, you'll be able to play the golf course the way you want to and not the way the architect wants you to play it: •Tom Pwtrer ·Many amateurs struggle to hit the ball , solidly because of their balance. One way to practice proper balance ls to hit about· 20 shots with your feet close together. Start with some half shots and then waft your way into almost a full swing. This drill will help get the arms and body moving together at the proper speed. Amateurs think they need to swing faster to hit the ball properly, and invariably thia leads to improper balance. You actually have to start the club bade slow enough so that your hands and arms lead the tum of your body ba<X:' • o.n. Quigley "The most common fault I see among amateurs is a rewrse weight shift. The right leg straightens on the badcswing, and invariably the player will swing across the ball, coming down and hitting a sfice. My tip for any amateur is to make sure the weight transfers in the direction the club is being swung. For right-handed players, the weight on the badlswing should move Into the right' leg. On the downswing the weight should transfet" to the left leg. Amateura who remember this thought and apply it to their SW1ngs will soon start hitting the ball more aolidly and consisten1t(." •Chi Chi Rodriguez ·Most players grip the golf club too tightly so there's too much tension in their hands, forearms and shoulders..

Your grip on the golf dub should be similar to how you hold a pool cue when playing billiard&. The grip should be onty tight enough IO the club doesn't fly out of your hands when you make contact.• • Tom Wlrbof'I •Ninety-five percent of the amateurs I see have bad grip&.

Richard Dunn Dally Pilot NEWPORT BEACH -1Wo-ume M as- ters champion Ben Crenshaw has been accused of being too nice a guy by Lee Thevino, but "Gentle Ben" at times has been an emouonaJ whirlwind. Crenshaw, who made tus 0.ampions Tour debut in 2002, has enjoyed an il- lustrious career with 19 PGA Tour lilies. including the 1984 and 199.5 Masters. His disposition on a golf coun.e. how- ever, has been anything but gentle. "That (nkkname) came because of my temper: Crenshaw once said. "Lt was certainJy born out of sarcasm. A fel- low here in Austin (Texas), a golf writer named Dick CoUins, gave me that nick- name. He wrote it in a golf column here after I had won the city championship when I was 15. That was the first time I saw It. sort of a mishomer. He knew I was competitive and had a temper. But it was directed only at myself.· Crenshaw, who once kicked an oil drum at Colonial in Fon Worth after tmee-puttlng the 16th green, said he threw some clubs. ·And I broke some,· he added. "I broke a club one day with my mother watching me at a coUege match. II was just terrible. I beat it on the ground and it broke. She just said, Oh, Benny.' I could teU how hurt sh e was.. Crenshaw has beeo known to lose his cool missing putts. He's thrown clubs, broken shafts and, according tp his caJ- cuJations, squandered at least seven majors. His ardent devotees, however. love him. and all they'd p~fer to re- member is the image of Crenshaw col- lapsing to his knees in tears after the tast pun at the 1995 Masters -not be- cause he'd won, but because he was grieving the death that week of his life- long instructor, Harvey Penick. After the '95 Masters. Crenshaw struggled on the PGA Tour the next six years, playing a limited scheduJe, but his new lease on life came last year as a rookie on the senior circuit. Crenshaw's Masters win in 1984 was also emotional, coming on the heels of a decis1on to separate from his first wife and get a divorce. "I don't know if that cleared my thinking.· he saJd. "I did feel a certain freedom and an ability to con - centrate at that time. In retrospect, it did have a way of getting everything back to the golf course. In 1995.

LOOKING BACK AT TOSHIBA VIII • • • rw1n cruise Ill Champion of last year's Toshiba Classic entered final round with a three-~troke lead and never looked back. Rlch•rd Dunn Daily Pilot NEWPORT BEACH -Heading into last year's Tush.iba Senior Oassic at Newport Beach Coun- try Oub. there was mention of playoffs and 'bow dose the lead- ' ers always seem to be in the end. Well. thanks to Hale Irwin, those theories are shoL Irwin, 57, has dominated New- port Beach with Toshiba titles in 1998 and last year, capturing the 2002 Toshiba Classic with a tour- nament scoring record 17-under 196, a victory that elevated h1m to the top of the money list on •he PGA Champions Tour. He never moved from the top on his way to a career-first $3-million sea.son. Last year. l.rwin changed al- most every club in his bag before winning the Toshiba Classic for a second time. Before teeing off in the first round, he switched to forged blade irons, dlanged from graphite to steel shafts, added a couple of new fairway woods and a new sand wedge, then went out and shot 67-64-65 for the finest round of 54 in Toshiba history. .. ,f t. a "" With a veteran group chasing him on Sudday, 1.rwin took on all comers, ~en disappeared from the rest of the field. He topped the previoua tournament scoring record by three shots (held by George Aldler in the inaugural Tushiba Senior Classic at Mesa Verde Country Qub Jn 1995). DON LUCH I DAILY Pll Hale Irwin hits a chip shot off the 18th green while the gallery converges on the final hole as he closes out a dominating effort with a 17-under 67-64-65 run in 2002. The prior tournament scoring record at Newport Beach, where the event has been played since 1996, was held by Irwin at 13-un- der 200 in 1998, when be shot a course-record 62 in the final round and recetved a bonus from the Famous Bunker Rake at 17 to get up and down for par. "That birdie at 16 sealed It, and I didn't need a rake this year at 17 to help me," lrwlo saJd. Down the atretdl last year, Ir- win nailed a 5-iron at the par-4 16 to within three feet. setting up his sixth of seven birdies on Sun- day. Irwin's margin of victory, five strokes, was also a tournament record, shattering,_ the previous mark of two shots by Jim Colbert in 1996. Irwin, who won $225,000 for last year's Thshiba crown, took a three-shot lead after the second round and wy never really chal- lenged on 'Swiday. "Ifl keep this up. and if I'm not burned out and I pace myself, I could have another banner year,• Irwin said after winning at Newport Beach last year, then he went oo to claim three other tJ - tles and win his third money d- tle, becoming the first to top $3 million in a single season, For Irwin, it was his 34th ca- reer senior title three months be- fore his 57th birthday, "When someone tells me I can't, it tends to motivate me,· Irwin said. ·rm not one that looks baclc but looks forward, try to create opportunities for suc- cess." Irwin and Bob Gilder each won four official events in 2002. the fewest number of victories to lead the Ownpions Thur since Jim Colbert and Bob Murphy each had four wins in '95. Irwin, a three-dine U.S. Open COOKING Cl.ASSES • FINE COOKWARE STORE PROFESSIO NAL COOKING PROGRAMS • BAKERY champion, won last year by larger margin of victory than the past six Tushiba champions combined It was the 12th time in his career that Irwin won the same tournament at least twice. Allen Doyle, the 2000 Toshiba Oassic champion, finished as runner-up last year, shooting his 11th straight sub-70 round in as many starts at Newport Beach. Doyle shot 66-68-67-ao 1 and placed in the lop three here for the fourth straight year.

In fact, Hoag Memorial Hos- pital Presbyterian, the lead charity of the Toshiba SenJor Oassic, is about to take the oa- .tiooal stage when the Newport Beach hospital will be featured in a 30-second public service announcement that will run prominently during national television programming. in- cluding PGA Tour and PGA Otampions Thur telecasts. The spot will be filmed at Hoag Hospital during Toshiba Senior Oassk tournament week. Gary McCord, who won the event in 1999 and grew up in Orange County, will star in the PSA. It will highlight the charitable accomplishments or the Toshiba Oassic, with par- ticular focus on the new Hoag Women's Pavilion, which has benefited greatly froin tourna- ment proceect. and is now be- ing built on the hospital's cam- pus. "1be PGA Tour handpicked a few charldes that best represent the philanthropic efforts of the Thur," said Toshiba Oassic Co- Ota.lnnan Hank Adler ...

The issue: There is plenty of park- ing. but visitors battling each other for the few choice spots along 'East Coast Highway don't know where to tlnd it, leaders say. • ".There is a misconception, be- cause some people think there is not adequate parking.~ said Bill Sinclair, the president of the Corona del Mar Cllamber of Commerce.

About 50 of those stalls are usually available behind the Bandera Res- taurant, at the intersection of Mar· guerite Avenue and East Coast High- way. Another 20 or so spaces are avail - able behind Rose Donul:s at East Coast Highway and Orchid Avenue. A lot . between Carnation and Dahlia aveoues is usually good for al· ~st 30 slots, Sinclair said.

Pub~ by Tlmae Communtty Newt, 1 dlvi91on of the IM~ Tlmae THE HARBOR COLUMN Some tips while cruising into San Diego Ahoy. A few days ago. I bad a 5Dl00th ride on a Carver yacht down the coast from Newport Harbor to San Diego Harbor. The new owners wttlSTLE SIGNALS While cruising in San Diego, I beard a few whistle signals that all boaters should recognize. • First. a nomenclature wanted to spend a couple of days MIKE lesson: Honking a boat's horn is WHITEHEAD technically called a aboard their recent purchase at Loews C.Oronado Bay Resort's marina and they asked for my assistance to get there for the first time. The run down was quiet, and the onty military ship we encountered was just · north of Mission Bay. The vessel was operating submersibles, and the ship's captain radioed us to request a two-mile CPA - thal's the term used for the closest point of approach, which is the distance to maintain in the water. An easy way to maintain the separation is for you to use the range rings oo your radar. Radars will display the range and rings distances usually in the upper left of the screen display. For example, 6/ l or 31.5 are common sening5 when cruising. The 6/ 1 means the radar is in the six-mile range and every range ring is one mile apart. Therefore, keep the ship more than two rin~ away from the center using 6/ l, and four ~away using 3/ .5. Cruising at 2 1 knots, we rounded PL Loma to enter San Diego Harbor soon after passing the ship. Here's a hint If you are heading to San Diego: 1ltls time of year, you can tum in close to the point, as there isn't any of the notorious propeller-tangling kelp. I have never seen San Diego Harbor so deserted of Navy ships. We saw only one submarine, one aircraft canier, the hospilal ship and a rew ships in the repair docks. The aircraft earners dock on the Coronado side just before you go under the C.Oronado Bridge. and now the canier basin is bloc.k.ed by a huge floating boom designed to stop vessels. The Loews ls on the south side of the bridge in C.Oronado just south or the Hotel del Coronado, and It can be tricky arriving to the marina by boat You have to cruise In the main channel under the bridge heading for Omla Vista and then cut aaoss the harbor at the start of the mooring field to the entrance markers leading to the Cays. This section of the harbor is very shallow. ao you have to stay on c:oune. I like cruising this time of the year in the off-season because the marhw! and the ·seas are not aowded. whistle signal. and the blasts have specific meani.np. Tuday, let's discuss only the three short blasts signal. but keep in mind you should review all the signals. Most of the time, when I signal three short blasts to other boaters ln Newport Harbor. espedally sailboats. the skipper usually signals bacJc with the one finger salute, completely ignorant that 1 am being courteous artd letting them know my intentions. Three short blasts signify that my vessel's propellers are in reverse, so in a crossing situation. I am slowing or stopping to let them cross in front Additionally, you can signal three short blasts when backing your boat out of Its slip. However, in Newport, I mJstaJcenly hear skippers adding one prolonged blast immediately in front of the three shorts. There should be a one-minute sq>iaratlon between the prolonged blast and the three shorts when backing out of a slip. but more on prolonged blasts in another cotwnn. Next time someone signals three shorts. gtve them a thank you wave.

A citywide vote ls JMBYism on a grand scale. One of the obvious reasons ~r government was established representational is to aJJow ur elected representatives to act Jn a responsible manner for the good of aJJ. Putting everything to ~ote will eventually bring our ty development process to a op. Good viable projects will be aJted. Our elected city officials should be allowed to do the job they were elected to do. ~Greenlight will eventually find way to stop all development in e city. Greenlight should be lied what it really is: StopJighL AL MARSHALL Newport. Beach I feel the voters need to be ~ven the chance to participate irectJy in the decision to pprove the proposed hotel on ~peninsula. The City Council oes not always represent the hes of the community at e. and that is why Greenlight r;vas passed. I BlLLBRALY Corona del Mar J Yes, the residents of Newport Beach should be able to vote on plis proposal. This is a major ~hange in our community, and e should have a say in whether ·s project ls approved, and it should be put to a citywide vote: LES AND HELEN WILEY Corona del Mar The debate on the Marinapark resort must include the effect on summer and spring break camps for our city's children, which are held in the environs .of the proposed site. For the past two years, my son and daughter have partaken in the city's fantastic "Sailing and Tennis Camp" that has been often the highlight of their school break. The camp combines tennis, at the Las Arenas court, followed by a tour around the bay on sabot boats as the kids learn nautical basics. ppening a resort wouJd probably end this. Every time a resort is proposed in Newport. be it previous attempts at Dunes or elsewhere, it is to mostly the benefit of visitors who don't pay truces or raise children in our great, diverse beach town. And for as much as tourism is important, I'm wondering if any one who lives here reaJJy wakes up in the morning and says, "Yes, today, I need a resort to malc.e my family life more fulfilling. .. The citys recreation ~rvices has great programs for kids that keep our children active during school breaks, which in tum keeps us moms sane and ma.Ices Newport Beach truly a family-friendly city. Sure, we miss out on tax revenue from the would·be resort's patrons. But selling out a cherished piece of our town comes with a lmuch higher price. JENNY BIOCHE Newport Beach A standing ovation for Port Theatre plans I think Ri<:.k Aversa.no is going to do a wonderfuf job with the Port ·Theatre. It sounds like the Idea that he has in place ls wonderful and very useful to the community. I want to thank him and tell him that we will aJJ be happy to patronize his beautifully new restored Port Theatre. Thank you very much to Rick. DEDE BRINK Corona del Mar Renovation of Port will be a delightful change I was so excited to hear that the Port Thearre has been sold and that the gentleman has wonderful ideas. We were back in Florida a couple years ago and went to a darling little renovated theater that served light meals before the movie, and it was delighcfuJ, so I certainly hope that ·the people that live around the theater wiJJ be open to having the rest of us in Corona del Mar able to enjoy the Port Theatre again. Yes, there wi.U be some crowded conditio ns as far as parking goes, but it is certainly well worth opening it back up again and having it be a cultural spot in our community rather than an eyesore.

SUSAN KENT Costa Mesa Nichols not one with 'repulsive' ideas It Is not often that I disagree wi1h members of the Newport Beach C.tty Council and Lhe Daily Pilot editorials, but I respectfully do so now regarding comments made about the Newport Beach Public Library's Distinguished Speakers Lecture Series. NewJy elected Councilman Dick Nichols made an interesting and quite logical comment during Lhe council meeting. Rather than have only liberal speakers at the lecture series, he suggested including speakers and topics that represent conservative viewpoints, t<?O· You know, get a little diversity going rather than a monopoly on one ideology. · For that. the poor man was chastised by Councilman Tod Ridgeway and Mayor Steve Bromberg and the Daily Pilot. His comment was labe led (are you s itling down for this one) "repulsive" by all 1hree. The Daily Pilot stated in an editorial that Nichols' caJJ fo r fairnec,s in speaker selection was "a totalitarian effort LO limit speech and debate." Hello, what am I missing here? II is not Nichols who wants to hmit speech and debate. He is the very one suggesting it is time to present the public with a variety of diverse speakers rather than continually invite ones who are all cut out of the 5ame philosophical cloth. The word "repulsive" is an appropriate adjective fo r this issue. but it is not Nichols' comm on sense suggestion that should be labeled as such.

John Emme, CdM Hiah basebaN coach 86 fnday, March 14, 2003 GOLF Going . . way back Toshiba Senior Classic Co-Chairman Rohrer will be reunited with former . PGA Tour rules official Eger, who won last weekend in Mexico City. F or years and years, when Jake Rohrer and the late Gene Baum would travel to the PGA Tour National Qualifying Tournament to reauit players for their Crosby Southern Pro-Am Oater the Newport Oassic Pro-Am). they felt privileged to sit right next to the player registration table and hand out invitations. "We were really only one or two tournaments allowed to recruit players ..----~ at Q School," said Rohrer, now the Toshiba Senior Oassic Co-Olairman and tournament volunteer through Hoag HospitaJ's 552 Oub, a fund-raising group which operated the Newport Oassic Pro-Am before dropping that tournament and taking over the PGA RICHARD DUNN Oiampions Tour event at Newport Beach Country Oub. Wherever Rohrer and Baum would ._ travel to attend Q School. they'd always meet up with David F.ger, the former PGA Thur (ules official in charge of Q SdlooL "When Gene and I did recruit for the Newport Oassic, we had to get Dave's blessing," Rohrer said "We had that relationship for quite a period of time." Next week in the Toshiba Senior Oassic. the roles will be reversed with Rohrer taking care of P.ger, a surprise winner Sunday at Olampions Tour event in Mexico City, where he rallied with a.final-round 65 lo overtake Bruce Lietzke and claim his first professional victory. 'Tm looking forward to seeing him," Rohrer said. "It's been several years since we've seen each other. He was on last year's Senior Tour, or this year's Ownpions Tour, but he wasn't quite SO (during last year's Toshiba Oassic)." Ranked as one of the finest amatews In the United States for the last 14 years, F.ger won the 1988 U.S. Mid-Amateur Ownpionship and played on three U.S. Walker Cup teams. He served two stints as a member of the PGA Tour staff and abo served as the Senior Director of Rules and Competition for the United States Golf Association from 1992-1995. "It will be fun to see him and catch up a little bit and thank him for all those years he helped us," Rohrer said "And now we're helping him a little." When Eger claimed the $300,000 first-place prize last week at the MasterCard Oassic, it represented more money than be had won previously In his PGA Tour and Ownpions Tour career combined Prior to last week. Eger had earned $252,161 in his career on the two tours. "I'm very happy for David," said npted golflnstructor OaVid Leadbetter, who woric.ed wlth F.ger a lot in the ofr·tea.s0n. "He was a ftne amateur player for years. but to beat a good field Ulte he did in Mexko. well that's quite a feather In his cap."
