Burton Bets on Pocono Push for First Since 1995
Pocono hopeful Ward Burton, No. 22 MBNA Pontiac, seeks victory as he climbs from 16th to 13th in points. After a Michigan pole at 181.561 mph and an eighth place, he cites improved engines and teamwork from Frank Leisson and Terry Elledge as keys. He notes Pocono’s tunnel turn, gear changes, and bottom-track setup impact performance and aims to add a second career win at the 2.5-mile track.

Payne Stewart shot a 66 to hold a four under par lead at the U.S. Open in San Francisco, with Tom Lehman and Bob Tway at 68 and Mark Carnevale at 67. Lingering coverage noted many stars failing down the stretch while Daly, Parnevik and Maggert stood at 69, and Woods, Love, Els and Faldo lagged behind.
