David Duval won the British Open at Royal Lytham St Annes after a four day struggle, finalizing with a 12 foot chip on the 18th. He shared a close friendship with Tiger Woods, the world number one, and reflected on the pressure, his rise from Jacksonville roots, and his pride in joining Woods as dominant open champions.
Duval captures the British Open at Royal Lytham St Annes to shed the label of best player never to win a major. He posts weekend rounds of 65 and 67, overcomes rough, bogey on 12, birdies 13 and 14, then finishes three shots ahead of Niclas Fasth and Ian Woosnam. He shares the legacy with Tiger Woods as the world’s top players, while the claret jug bears his name for the first time.
Ian Woosnam dropped from the lead at the British Open when he penalized himself for having too many clubs after a caddie miscount. He bogeyed two of the next three holes, rebounded with an eagle and several birdies, but signed for an even par 71 and finished tied for third. Woosnam blamed caddie Miles Byrne for counting errors and missing the extra driver from the bag.
Finney County Bandits went 2-2 at the 15-year state tournament in Russell. They squandered a 17-5 first inning win over the Topeka Pirates and a 16-5 first inning win over the Topeka Sun Devils, while losses to Wichita Jets 15-0 and Wichita Tornadoes 9-? ended their run.
Chris Webber signed a seven year contract worth 122.7 million to return to the Sacramento Kings, the second largest NBA deal at the time. He praised the franchise and cited maturity and a championship aim as the team pursued a serious title run.
Kansas State sophomore Matt Williams, 22, of Holton, defeated Travis Engle 10 and 8 in the Kansas Amateur Championship final at Mission Hills. Williams rallied from a deficit with a par at No 5, a rare 9-iron shot through tree limbs, and a birdie barrage to clinch the title, becoming KSU’s first Kansas Amateur champion since Jim Colbert in 1965.
