Mallon adds U.S. Open to her list of credentials
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) Not so long ago, a smiling, friendly, light-hearted 28-year-old named Meg Mallon was just another freckle-nosed face on the LPGA Tour, a fair golfer with a nice swing and no victories. Today she’s the U.S. Women’s Open champion and a budding superstar. “IT’S OVERWHELMING,” Mallon grinned after she gunned down two of the game’s premier players in a tense Sunday showdown and escaped with her second major tide in two weeks. It was her third LPGA victory of the year. “When you’re on a roll, you’re on a roll,” she said after firing a 4-under-par 67 in the final round to overtake Pat Bradley and Amy Alcott and secure the SIIO,OOO top prize by two shots. “No one is more surprised than me at how things have turned out.” THE 67 MATCHED her closing round two weeks ago, when she
Top swimmers right at home
LOS ANGELES (AP) The swimming competition at the U.S. Olympic Festival has taken on a decidedly local flavor. Huntington Beach products Steve West and Scott Wester led the way Sunday as southern California swimmers made repeated trips to the medal stands. THE FIRST WEEKEND of the nine-day festival concluded with some disenchantment with a new electronic scoring system in boxing. The nation’s top figure skating team won a gold medal as expected, and a national record was set in skeet shooting. West, at 19 the oldest swimmer in the competition, broke a festival record for the second time in as many days by winning the 200meter breaststroke Sunday in 2 minutes, 18.12 seconds. That erased the mark of 2:21.97 set by Greg Rhodenbaugh of Cincinnati nine years ago. On Saturday, West had broken

won the LPGA Championship at Bethesda, Md., in a similar shootout with Bradley and Ayako Okamoto. Sunday’s victory shoved her into second place on the money list with $420,773. “It was an excellent battle,” sighed Bradley, who led or shared the lead all weekend and entered the final nine a shot ahead of Alcott and two in front of Mallon and Laurel Kean. “It was up for grabs.” BRADLEY, THE 1981 Open champion, and Alcott, the 1980 Open winner, matched Colonial’s demanding par-71 while Kean finished with a 70. Bradley earned the runner-up $55,000 prize at 285 while Alcott was third at 286 and Kean fourth at 287. Joan Pitcock, the co-leader with Bradley after three rounds, fired a 75 and fell back to 289. Mallon, playing ahead of Bradley and Alcott, caught the leaders
the 100-meter breaststroke record. West said he wouldn’t have been allowed to compete if he were five days older. His winning time Sunday was his personal best by 1.9 seconds. “MY WHOLE CLUB was here and so was my family,” he said. “Before I started I saw the banner they brought. I was real comfortable this close to home.” Wester, already 6-feet-5 at age 16, won his second and third gold medals. He won the 200-meter title and swam the anchor leg for the South’s winning 800-mcter freestyle relay team Sunday after winning the 50-meter race on Saturday. Wester switched to sprints only in January and wasn’t listed among the top freestyle entrants when the festival began. His winning 200 time was 1:52.21, just .01 of a second short of the festival record. HE SAID HE knew he could swim fast at 200 meters, but his

with a 21-foot birdie putt on the 11th hole, kept pace with a 25-foot birdie at No. 14 and moved ahead with a 30-footer at 15. AT THE 16TH tee, she said, she did not know whether she was ahead or behind and did not want to know for fear of adding to the pressure. “I made a conscious effort not to look at the scoreboard,” she said. “Then some little kid told me I was a shot ahead. ... When I heard that, I got a little nervous.” She rescued par on the par 3 16th with the “putt of the tournament,” a sidehill 3‘/2-footcr, easily paired the last two holes and watched via the national telecast as neither Bradley nor Alcott could mount a rally. LIKE BRADLEY, ALCOTT pointed out that she played well and certainly gave away nothing: “Meg shot a great round of golf. She definitely went out and won the golf tournament.”
opponents probably didn’t know his background. “I was kind of hoping that people would count me out for the 200,” he said, “and I could maybe surprise them. I do have a distance base behind me and I’m able to bring it home.” Stacie Doorman, 17, of Walnut Creek, Calif., won her third gold medal by swimming the first leg of the North’s 400-mcter freestyle relay. She won golds Saturday in the 200 freestyle and 800 freestyle relay. IN BOXING, THE winner and loser questioned the new electronic scoring after Kenneth Friday of the Air Force beat Julian Wheeler of the Navy 10-9 in a 125-pound semifinal. Wheeler called the result “wierd,” adding, “I just don’t understand the scoring.” Friday said he felt both fighters landed more punches “and I know it felt like I took more than that.”
