GPSC selects new A week later, ad still draws anger president, leaders By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle
Last night, the Graduate and Professional Student Council selected next year’s officers. The council, which in the past has striven to keep a firm balance between graduate and professional students, overwhelmingly tilted toward the former. First-year Divinity students David Ferguson and David Kirkpatrick were the only students not from the Graduate School to be elected to the standing committees of the Board of Trustees or the organization’s executive committee. Ferguson and Kirkpatrick were elected vice president and student life committee chair, respectively. Ferguson will serve with PresElavne Heisler ident-elect Elayne Heisler, a second-year student in sociology. Heisler, who said she will focus on graduate student funding, increasing the organization’s visibility and creating better links between graduate and professional students, said that having a graduate student at the helm will be beneficial. “I like the idea of a graduate student rather than a professional student as president of GPSC. In the past we’ve had a professional student as the president and it hasn’t worked well,” Heisler said. The standing committees of the Board of Trustees now also lack professional student representation. Third year biomedical engineer Carol Chauncey and thirdyear graduate student in sociology Will Tyson were elected to the student affairs standing committee, deSee GPSC ELECTIONS on page 7

Owners worry as funds slide away from the Hideaway By ROBERT KELLEY
tember change in the campus bar’s carding policy has contributed to the decline
In the face of declining revenues and refusal by administrators to restructure a $650,000 lease plan with the University, owners of the Hideaway are signaling that the campus bar may close its doors at the end of the school year. The Hideaway’s main problem for next year is finding a new group of student owners, without which the bar cannot open. Current owners are worried that this year’s financial losses, which they say are due to more stringent carding policies, will continue in the future and dissuade students from becoming owners. Under the current loan agreement, 10 students are chosen each year for oneyear ownership terms. These students invest a certain amount of money in the business and split any profits or losses. Co-owner Greg Blair, a Fuqua student, estimates that the Hideaway currently is recouping only 60 percent of what the owners invested at the beginning of the year. And if business continues at such a slow pace, Blair said other students may be unwilling to put up the approximately $7,000 per owner necessary to open the Hideaway next year. “We have to go out and recruit new owners who are probably going to lose money on their investment,” he said. Both Hideaway owners and University administrators acknowledge that a Sep-
in business. “In the past, the Hideaway has had an awful lot of business,” said Fuqua student James Sherrill, also a co-owner. “The social arm of the University and the owners of the Hideaway have been working together to improve the underage drinking aspect, the safety of the bar and to improve the bar’s reputation. Obviously, the consequences of that are that we’re losing money.” Administrators agree that the Hideaway has been cooperative in attempts to reduce problems like underage drinking. “I’ve been very pleased with what they have been willing and able to do,” said Sue Wasiolek, assistant vice president for

student affairs. The Hideaway owners asked administrators last month to restructure the lease plan that was put in place two years ago. At the time, administrators felt that responsibility for the bar was spread too thinly over a large group of owners, so the University bought all shares of the business for $650,000 and reduced the number of owners to 10. Each owner must purchase his or her shares upfront, then pay additional rent costs through the year. This year, the owners combined to pay the University $57,214 for their shares, and $1,035 a month for rent. See HIDEAWAY on page 7 �

England preemptively kills animals By ALAN COWELL
New York Times News Service
In a sharp expansion of its CARLISLE, England battle to contain an epidemic of foot-and-mouth disease, Britain deployed its army Monday to bury the first of up to a half-million carcasses of both infected and healthy sheep in a mass grave on a disused airfield near the northwestern city of Carlisle. The grave is the size of a football field. A senior military officer called the internment’s scale “apocalyptic.” The move to bury the sheep, and to slaughter uninfected animals, represented a shift away from the authorities’ previous practice of slaughtering and burning only infected animals, as the government sought to create a ring around hard-hit areas like the county of

At Duke, a sidewalk stroll is no walk in the park By MOLLY JACOBS The Chronicle
The University’s stone buildings and sidewalks create a beautiful, Gothic ambiance, but over the years, its flagstone walkways have proven unsafe for disabled students, rollerbladers and even
pedestrians.
The most common problems the facilities management department repairs are cracked mortar joints, wobbly stones, uneven sidewalk patches and broken or cracked flagstones—problems that go beyond bad aesthetics. For instance, when the damage goes unrepaired, students with disabilities have a tougher time maneuvering over the rough terrain. That can be more than an inconvenience—it’s a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act’s accessibility guidelines. “[The sidewalks! require ongoing maintenance to ensure that Duke is compliant with the ADA,” said Mary ThomasFranks, director of the program for.persons with disabilities. “Certainly these sidewalks present a unique challenge and one we need to keep up with continual maintenance.” The University has no system for regular sidewalk maintenance, despite receiving at least four to six complaints about unsafe conditions on West Campus each year. Students with disabilities are not the only ones complaining. Others say they are inconvenienced because the sidewalks are not a suitable venue for some popular forms of exercise.
Corrections A page three story in Friday’s edition ofThe Chronicle did not identify the director of curriculum and instruction for the Durham public school system. He is Bert L’Homme. A page one photo in the same edition ofThe Chronicle was incorrectly credited to Victor Chang. The photo was taken by Pratik Patel.
“I got these great roller-skates and love to do it, but the only place I could find smooth enough to do it was on the track,” said junior Kate Kiefhaber. “After quickly getting booted from there, my skates were left to collect dust. I stare at them longingly everyday, wondering why we don't have skateable sidewalks.” Even for students with no special needs or interests, the sidewalks can present a problem. Jean Hanson, assistant director of student health, said students have come to her with sprained ankles, bruises and scrapes after stumbling over cracks.
“The fashions today are not really compatible with the sidewalks that Duke has,” Hanson said. “You can’t walk [on these sidewalks in] flip-flops and clogs.” Sidewalks found on West Campus consist of large flagstone slabs connected by concrete mortars, a style some believe is more aesthetic that practical. “These are not optimal from a safety or convenience point of view, but you could say the same thing about Gothic architecture in general,” said George Pearsall, professor of mechanical engineering and materials science. “If it’s made up of pieces, it’s not called a sidewalk; it’s called stepping stones.” The flagstone pieces do not create the level surface provided by conventional concrete sidewalks used at other colleges and in the city of Durham. “With paving stones or brick or flagstones, there is the problem of the individual stones moving because they are less constrained,” said Edward Venable, civil engineer for the Durham department of public works. ‘They have the propensity to crack because there are lots of joints as opposed to a concrete sidewalk with joints only every ten feet.” Engineers agree that a phenomenon called frost heave causes the greatest amount of sidewalk damage. Frost heave is a process in which tree roots grow into sidewalk cracks created by the winter freeze-and-thaw cycle. “Flagstones are more or less a defined shape and more likely to adapt to the forces that are acting on them,” Venable said.

“We do routine maintenance; we don’t have an annual program,” Reynolds said. “We rely on people reporting these problems that they see.” But authorities on the subject feel that a regular type ofmaintenance is essential to having safe sidewalks—especially when the flagstone structure is used. “Concrete is by far the most durable and most cost-effective [sidewalk material!,” Venable said. “The flagstone would require more and more labor-intensive maintenance. A regular maintenance process is necessary for any sidewalk.”

Susceptibility for this type of damage makes regular maintenance necessary to ensure sidewalks remain safe for pedestrians. “[Flagstone sidewalks] are inherently uneven, not like concrete where it’s smooth and flat,” said Glenn Reynolds, associate director of facilities management. “They require more maintenance; that’s inherent in the construction ofthe flagstones.” However, Reynolds said, “more maintenance” does not equal regularly scheduled repair.

Durham addiction programs get axed A hole in the county budget leaves the Durham Center, which offers behavioral health and disability services, without enough funds to run a detox program, a halfway house and substance abuse programming for inmates. By RUTH CARLITZ The Chronicle
A House course in more ways than one Congressman David Price, also a Duke professor of political science, spoke to more than a dozen students last night at Blackwell Dormitory. The students are members of a “Housing and Homelessness” house course sponsored by’ Break For a Change, a group that coordinates social justice courses at Duke and other campuses across the nation. Price has represented North Carolina’s 4th District since 1992. He was brought to the University last night by senior Matt Ching, a student in the course. A member of the Appropriations committee in the House of Representatives, Price discussed the challenges of funding programs that aim to reduce poverty and provide housing in low-income and urban areas such as Durham.
A $1.4 million shortfall has forced the Durham Center, a county agency that provides behavioral health and disability services, to drastically cut mental health services. Steven Ashby, the county’s mental health director, said the budget cuts will affect programs and services across the board. Three of the major programs that were cut are the STARR program, which provides substance abuse services to jail inmates, the Oakleigh Detoxification program and a halfway house. Ten employees were laid off, yicluding the Center’s second-incommand. Tony Mulvihill, a former board member at the Center and the current director of North Carolina’s Alcohol and Drug Council, said he was distressed by the budget cuts. The loss of the three major programs “pretty much decimates the addiction program in Durham County,” he said. “It’s tragic.” Following recommendations of a cost reduction team, the Durham Center’s board voted unanimously to make the changes. Ashby said the board’s other options would have been to close another program, lay off additional staff or roll additional debt into next year. “There were no good choices, period,” he said. But Mulvihill expressed dissatisfaction with the board’s final choice. “It’s a common belief that addicts bring their addiction on themselves,” he said. See MENTAL HEALTH

Student health insurance under the microscope again By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle Over the next few weeks, members ofthe University’s Insurance Advisory Committee will be considering several changes to the student health insurance plan. The committee will distribute a survey this week to help decide on possible changes to prescription drug coverage and the family premium structure. The committee, which will meet April 1, reevaluates the student insurance plan every year. The proposed changes are targeted mainly at graduate students, who comprise most of the committee and make up about 80 percent of the 4,500 plan participants. Dan Hill of Hill, Chesson & Woody, students’ health insurer, said graduate students might benefit from having a card they could use to buy prescriptions at pharmacies. “It’s a matter of convenience, and an out-of-pocket issue,” Hill said. “In most cases it would result in an increase in benefits.” Students could use the card to buy prescriptions with a co-payment of $lO, $2O or $3O per drug per 30 days, depending on whether the drug is generic or brand-name.
under a group rate of $1,820, more than double the $847 individual premium. This structure benefits larger families, but some consider it unfair for two-person families, who make up about a third of all families in the system. “The obvious concern is that two-person families, with maybe two student parents, don’t have much income and could use every break we could give them,” Opel said. “Right now if you have a larger family you make out like a bandit.” The committee will examine the option of switching to per-person premiums. Hill said that the University’s plan for students is generally competitive compared to those ofother schools, including three area universities that he also insures—the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University and East Carolina University. “We always have to balance between offering comprehensive benefits at a competitive premium, as opposed to the lowest possible premium with reduced benefits,” he said. “The committee understands that it is a highly competitive plan. Frankly, there are a lot of plans at colleges out there that are not competitive, that cover a lot less than what their parents get.”
Under the current plan, students have a $lOO deductible for prescriptions, with insurance covering 80 percent of the cost afterwards. But that coverage comes only after students submit a form to BlueCross Blue Shield, which sends a reimbursement usually about three weeks later, Hill said. One objection to the drug card plan is the $42 it would add to the annual premium, negating what would otherwise go to a premium cut ofabout 3 percent for next year. “The question really is whether convenience is worth $42
a year,” said Ryan Opel, a second-year graduate student in law and psychology and vice president of the Graduate and Professional Student Council. With the added premium and the co-payments, some prescriptions could cost more, but Hill said the cardbased system would benefit many students, particularly those with expensive chronic illnesses. He projected that total benefits paid out would rise from about $250,000 now to about $450,000 if the plan were implemented. The committee will also consider whether to change the amount participants pay in annual premiums for their family members. Currently all families are covered
‘Decency’ at heart of court’s decision � SUPREME COURT from page 2
“It is time for this court to assess whether American society has changed significantly over the past decade so that the execution ofthe mentally retarded now violates American standards of decency,” the lawyer, Seth Cohen of Greensboro, N.C., said in the appeal, McCarver v. North Carolina, No. 00-8727. The Supreme Court looks at “evolving standards of decency” to determine whether a particular punishment is cruel and unusual. Under that test of current social consensus, the court in recent years has ruled out, for example, execution of the insane, of rapists not also convicted of murder and of murderers younger than 16. The grant of review was a surprise because the court had appeared to be moving by small steps on the retardation issue. Carver was convicted in 1987 of robbing and murdering a fellow cafeteria worker in Concord, N.C. Tuesday morning, the justices will hear arguments for the second time in the case of Penry, the inmate whose earlier appeal led the court to reject the broad attack on executing the retarded. In the 1989 Penry ruling, the court vacated his death sentence on the narrower ground that the Texas death penalty law turned his retardation into a doubleedged sword, possibly persuading jurors that his inability to control violent impulses made him especially dangerous and thus a candidate for execution. After a new hearing in Texas, Penry was again sentenced to death, and the issue before the justice Tuesday is whether the instructions to the jury in response to the first Penry ruling allowed the jury to use retardation as a reason to view him as less, not more, deserving ofthe death penalty. Penry’s new appeal, Penry v. Johnson, No. GO-
-6677, does not present the broader constitutional issue. In light of the court’s action Monday, it is not clear what the justices will do in Penry’s case, because the issue of the jury instructions is irrelevant if the Eighth Amendment bars the execution of the retarded. A decision in the Penry case would ordinarily come by the end of the court’s term in late June, while the McCarver case would not be argued until the new term began next fall. It might not be decided until early 2002. Executions of retarded killers are not likely to occur while the McCarver case is pending. Earlier this month, the justices granted a stay of execution to Antonio Richardson, a retarded on Missouri s death row. The court took no further action on that case Monday, and the stay was likely to remain until the court decided the McCarver case. Under North Carolina law, the jury in McCarver’s case was permitted to weigh his retardation as mitigating against the death penalty. The jury found that McCarver, then 26, functioned “intellectually as a 10- or 12-year-old” but that evidence of premeditation outweighed his retardation and other mitigating evidence.

HIDEAWAY from page 1 Wasiolek said the decision to reject the Hideaway owners’ proposal for a restructuring was made from a financial perspective. “I don’t think the University should be viewed as an entity that is going to bail out student business ventures that don’t work,” she said. Jeffrey Potter, director of real estate administration, made the call to reject the proposal. “All we said was ‘no, we had just negotiated it two years ago.’” Scott Eichel, Trinity ’97 and former owner of the Hideaway, blames the current financial crisis on the 1998 restructuring. “Under my reign... investors were making a 25 percent annual return, and we never had this underage drinking problem before the school took over,” he said. “Once you put school officials in charge of anything concerning fun, they’re going to mess it up.” Although the Hideaway has established itself as a tradition on campus, Wasiolek doubts if its closing would have a major effect on social life. “From what they’ve indicated, their business has been so minimal, one wonders if there’s going to be any impact.” Potter denied that the rejection of the proposal was tantamount to closing the bar. “As far as I know, no decision has been made to close the Hideaway,” he said. “There’s no administrator who wants to see this change. It’s the students who are getting worried.”

Social space blunders
While
a new plan to change social space aHocation proposes several long-desired changes, it fails to show a unified vision for campus life; the proposal is inconsistent with other University plans for alcohol and residential life. Under this proposal, the University would pay for security at events The new alcohol policy proposal, however, calls for individual groups to pay for event security. The plan also will move parties out of commons rooms—at the same time as designs for the commons rooms in the West-Edens Link call for larger commons areas. Furthermore, the plan ignores parts of the recent residential life policy. These conflicts are the result of too many committees working on too many issues without good intercommittee communication. Arising from this confusion are plans lacking a philosophical vision and are instead merely incomplete steps to implement goals. Why, as the University looks to expand social space, would administrators propose a plan to disallow commons rooms as a venue? Although motivated in part by abidance of the fire code and concern for independents, this idea’s justification is simply illogical. The fire code does not exist to stop parties; instead, it should merely limit access to them. Loud parties can certainly annoy those who wish to sleep. However, the corridors proposed under the recent residential life plan would reduce the stress from such noise. Eliminating use of the commons rooms for events would shut down a significant part of the current social scene. This change would force more events off campus. At the same time, the proposal would reduce interaction between selective living groups and independents—one of the main reasons that such selective groups exist. Better communication between administrators is necessary to avoid these conflicts. Also, these problems illustrate the need for a long-term planner to fill the vacant post of vice president for student affairs. While the plan does contain conflicting elements, other aspects implement long-desired change. In particular, the plan will make athletic space, most notably Cameron Indoor Stadium, open to event scheduling. The time has come for the University to allow student groups to use Cameron. The athletics department has claimed everything from potential floor damage to scheduling conflicts when students have attempted to use this space. Nonetheless, other institutions have dealt with these same problems and have allowed their student groups to use similar facilities With such a large facility available, student life could reap significant dividends. Groups such as the Union would have greater pull to attract big-name acts to town. Page Auditorium has hosted many fine events, but Cameron could extend such events to many more people and thus be even more attractive to performers. Centralizing the reservation of athletic and other event venues is another good part of the plan. Those students who currently have problems finding who oversees certain spaces wil] appreciate not facing this hassle. Although the plan’s proposal for University-sponsored security conflicts with the alcohol plan, such a measure could help groups organizing events. While the proposal needs work to present a more coherent vision of campus social life, it does address issues that would enhance students’ social experience.

Money motivated Chronicle to publish Horowitz ad May I interrupt the collective and self-congratulatory back patting on The Chronicle’s and the University’s “mature reaction” to David Horowitz’s March 19 advertisement and our commitment to “academic discourse and intellectual interchange,”
freedom of the press and other liberal values to suggest that the reason why The Chronicle may have run the reparations ad was because of another familiar motive: money. The question for the editors, then, is not so much why the advertise-
ment was printed, but rather how much money the paper received —in the name of civil liberties and discourse—intellectual because of it.

Dismissing the ex-gay rhetoric No coming, no going James Harkins If you’ve been following Showtime’s series Queer as Folk, you know that the fabulous flaming queen Emmett, to the horror of his friends, joined an ex-gay group. What started as routine mockery (group: “You can change! You can change!” Emmett: “I’d start with those shoes.”), turned deadly serious when the group leader shot back a longer-winded version of the question, “Is this the life you want for yourself?” In a twist I admit I didn’t see coming, Emmett took the bait. For a few episodes, he was trying to resist masculine temptations and become straight—and we in the audience were left with a question: Why? “The life,” as caricatured by the right wing, is
shallow and selfish, structured around nothing but pleasure and the pursuit thereof. It must be admitted, there are ways in which those pumps fit, although the same charges could be leveled at “the heterosexual lifestyle,” if singles bars and Sex and the City are taken as representative. Part of the problem is that when we think of heterosexuality, monogamy is the norm and promiscuity is deviant, while we think of homosexuality in the opposite terms. Gays are supposed to be whores, and those who are not are just the exceptions proving the rule. Are these generalizations so airtight in practice? I doubt it. If we look honestly at people’s actual behavior, we’ll find less difference than society leads us to expect (as Alfred Kinsey found in the 19405).
Societal homophobia is a trial by fire, and not Anti-gay crusaders do the truth a disservice by fixating on one aspect of gay life and ignoring the one gay person escapes it. Many never recover, and others, and we in the gay community do ourselves a these are the ones who do sink into an unhealthy disservice by letting them. Emmett took the bait lifestyle, lending plausibility to the idea of gay because he didn’t see any other way to be gay that’s pathology. But there are others who find their way as alluring as the party lifestyle. The best way to through the fire and emerge with a dignity that is all the stronger because it was earned through combat ex-gay groups, then, is to cultivate meaningful, well-rounded lives—as many of us, in fact, struggle, not bought through conformity. This dignity is fragile in some ways because it do. Not only are we happier that way, but also, when the ex-gays ask, “Is this life of empty hedonism doesn’t get much support from society, but it’s more what you want for yourself?” we can say, “But that resilient in other ways because it doesn’t depend on society’s approval or disapproval. isn’t my life. My life is rich and multifaceted.” Ex-gay groups don’t talk about this kind of dignity. They promise an easy way out of self-hatred: what we say, and we’ll tell you you’re OK. It we do works, in away: ex-gay “success stories” report feeling a kind of peace they never knew in the gay scene. But is it peace or is it the pleasure of obeying the rules and getting a reward for it? The problem norm with this kind of satisfaction is that it can be revoked in an instant if you slip up. This “peace,” then, is laced with fear, and as such, ex-gay groups compromise whatever spiritual awakenings they terms. bring about with the threat of failure. By contrast, when we sit still and sense our deep connection—belonging—to the great web of life, we Ex-gay groups make much of the so-called know that this connection can never be revoked. It’s Buddha nature; it’s Christ’s unconditional love. A pathology of homosexuality, asserting that homocondition split second is enough for me to know, even if a mildisordered that causes sexuality is a lion people condemn me, that I belong here, just as addictive and self-destructive behaviors.

Krzyzewski celebrates Final Four, birth of grandson By BRODY GREENWALD The Chronicle
“Mike, you’re lucky.” Mike Krzyzewski has reminded himself of that fact on a regular basis ever since his Blue Devils advanced to the Final Four with a 79-69 victory over Southern California. In 21 seasons at Duke, the legendary coach has been to nine Final Fours, but he knows such honors can be few and far between. Since 1995, the Blue Devils have only been twice in seven opportunities. Yet, when Krzyzewski held his postEast Regional press conference yesterday afternoon in Cameron Indoor Stadium, the Final Four was not the first thing discussed by Duke’s coach.
Instead, his comments, at least initially, focused on a different blessing to recently fall on the Krzyzewski household. Although Krzyzewski always has a touch of playfulness in him when he
greets the media, the grin on his face was especially wide yesterday afternoon when he walked into Cameron’s press room to announce that his daughter Debbie had delivered her second son,
Michael Giovanni Savarino. Savarino
was born in healthy condition yesterday
morning at Duke Hospital. “It really helps put everything in perspective and it takes the nervousness out of [the games],” said Krzyzewski, who made a few jokes about the newborn not incurring his grandfather’s less-than-stunning looks. “I don’t want my daughters to think I need a grandson every time we go to the Final Four, especially Debbie. We want to go to the Final Four every year and we don’t need that many babies.” After a few minutes, the conversation quickly turned to basketball and Duke’s upcoming bout with the Maryland See PRESS CONFERENCE on page 19 I*

Lady Boilermakers reach 2nd Final Four in 3 years By CHUCK SCHOFFNER Associated Press
88 BIRMINGHAM Katie Douglas, Kelly 78 Komara and Camille Cooper are going back to the Final Four. Xavier’s remarkable postseason ride is over. Komara played a superb game filling in for injured point guard Erika Valek and Douglas hit two critical three-pointers while battling through an off night shooting as Purdue beat Xavier 88-78 yesterday to win the Mideast Regional. Douglas, Komara and Cooper all played on Purdue’s 1999 national championship team. They still have a chance to win another. The Boilermakers (30-6) will play Southwest Missouri State, the West Regional winner, in the national semifinals Friday night in St. Louis. Xavier (31-3) had become one of the darlings of the NCAA tournament after upsetting Tennessee, the No. 1 seed, 8065, in Saturday’s regional semifinals. But the Musketeers could not keep the magic going and saw their 21-game wining streak, the nation’s longest,

The Musketeers led 47-39 with 15:57 left and was answering every time Purdue challenged until Phillips left the
game with 9:08 remaining. Xavier led 58-55 at the time. By the time she came back, Purdue was ahead. Douglas, who had been l-for-10, hit a three-pointer to tie the score at 58 with 8:55 left. That was the score when Xavier took off against Tennessee. Purdue did not let that happen. Wright’s two free throws at 6:55 gave Purdue the lead for good, 64-63, and Douglas followed with a three from the left corner. Parr’s three-pointer drew Xavier to 67-66, but it would never be that close again. Seven straight points gave Purdue a 74-66 lead with 3:04 to play and the Boilermakers finished it off at the freethrow line. Douglas sank 11-of-12 from the charity stripe in the final 2:03. Purdue became the first school to reach the Final Four under three different coaches. Lin Dunn took the Boilermakers in 1994 and Carolyn Peck guided them to their title in 1999.

Tiger wins, goes Duke prepares for Terps, Minneapolis roaring in Masters >
By CLIFTON BROWN
New York Times News Service
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. The stock market may be in a slump, but Tiger Woods is not. Those who were worried about the state of Woods’ game not long ago can worry about something else. With his second significant victory in two weeks, Woods will roar into the Masters next week with more momentum than a downhill putt at Augusta National. He reached another milestone yesterday, winning the Players Championship, the most prestigious tournament that he had not already claimed. While other contenders were victimized by the migraine-inducing back nine at the TPC at Sawgrass, Woods methodically did what he often does—made the putts and the shots that he needed to make. Starting Monday’s suspended play on the 10th hole, and protecting the one-stroke lead that he slept on overnight, Woods repelled the challenges of Vijay Singh, Bernhard Langer and Jerry Kelly to prevail by one stroke at the TPC at Sawgrass. Woods finished at 14 under par (274, 72-69-66-67), one stroke ahead of Singh (275, 67-70-70-68), who made a crucial triplebogey at the par four No. 14 that may have cost hinn victory. Langer took third place with a final-round 72, while Kelly, the unlikely third-round leader, fell to fourth place after a final-round 73, in his unsuccessful bid to win for the first time on the PGA Tour. By capturing the biggest first-place check in golf, Woods soared to No. 1 on the tour’s money list, and in the process, he gained even more confidence for next week, when he hopes to become the first golfer to win four consecutive professional majors. After winning the Bay Hill Invitational last weekend to snap an eight-tournament winless streak on tour, Woods notched his 26th career tour victory at one of golfs most prestigious events Woods will spend this week diligently practicing for a trip to the Masters that will be perhaps the mostanticipated event in golf history. But Monday, Woods savored a rewarding win, joining Jack Nicklaus as the only golfers to win all four major championships, as well as the 28-year-old Players Championship. “It’s special to be able to win a championship like this, on an extremely demanding golf course with probably the best field assembled in all of golf,” said Woods. “I was playing some pretty good golf over the last few months. It’s just that you need to have some good breaks come your way. I think that’s what has happened the last couple of weeks. I’ve had some shots that were borderline that turned out all right. You need to have those breaks. You cannot always play well. You have to have a little luck on your side.” As well as Woods putted in this tournament, he didn’t need much luck. And he also got some unexpected help from Singh, the reigning Masters champion who made the day’s biggest blunder, pulling his tee shot into the water at No. 14 which triggered the triple bogey that eventually sunk him. “One bad swing,” said Singh. “That’s all it takes when you’re playing the final round of a tournament this big. You cannot make mistakes like that. And that was it.” Singh’s miscue gave Woods, who was playing the 13th hole, a three-stroke edge on Langer and Kelly, and a four-stroke advantage over Singh. That was all the breathing room Woods needed to make his trip down the back nine a little less nerve-wracking. Though Singh bounced back with a creative eagle at No. 16, using the toe-end of his putter to make a 25footer that was nestled against the collar of the green, it wasn’t enough. Woods made birdies on the 10th, 12th and 16th to lead by two strokes when he reached the treacherous island green at the par three, 137yard No. 17. Woods’ 9-iron tee shot flirted with the water, but after bouncing right ofthe flag toward the water, the ball stopped in the deep rough less than 2 feet short of the bank. Woods left his chip shot about 6 feet short, but he made the putt for par, giving him a two-stroke lead as he headed to the par 4 finishing hole. With margin for error at No. 18, Woods hit a 2-iron tee shot into the rough, laid up into the fairway, hit a wedge onto the green, then two-putted for bogey and the onestroke win. Kelly, who never seriously threatened Monday, had a better appreciation for Woods’ talent after being paired with him during the final round.
PRESS CONFERENCE from page 15
Terrapins Saturday in the Final Four’s late game. Duke and Maryland will be meeting for the fourth time this season, with the Blue Devils holding a 2-1 advantage.
Freshman Chris Duhon said that preliminary preparation for Maryland has been guided by a relaxed and loose Krzyzewski, who has implored his players not to place additional pressure on themselves. “No matter what the situation is, he’s so confident and we know that he’s going to lead us to the promised land” Duhon said. “The only thing we have to do is listen to what he says.” Much of the questions Krzyzewski responded to yesterday probed two matchups that have been slightly concerning for the Blue Devils this season. All-American Jason Williams will square off once again with lanky and pesky Steve Blake from Maryland, while center Carlos Boozer will be paired down low with Lonny Baxter for the first time since
fracturing his third metatarsal against Maryland back in February. Williams has found ways to score against everyone in the country, but Blake’s long arms forced Duke’s main ball-handler into 10 turnovers in the teams’ first meeting before the dramatics of the final minute. Blake, whose deceptive speed and sound decision-making are often underrated, has also successfully run the Terps’ offense without much difficulty against Williams. Baxter, who has been on a tear recently in the NCAA tournament, has similarly enjoyed many of his best games against Duke the past two seasons. He recorded double-doubles each of the last two meetings with an average of 15 points and 11 rebounds in those contests. Nonetheless, Krzyzewski denied that he would devote an inordinate amount of time to the matchup at center. “I’m concerned about everything. I’m not going to be more concerned about one thing than another,” he said. “I don’t know how you prioritize concern.”
