Scotty Bowman, retiring as coach after guiding the Detroit Red Wings to a 3-1 win over Carolina for their third Cup in six seasons, earned a record ninth title and carried the trophy around the ice with his players. Luc Robitaille joined the celebration as Dominik Hasek finally captured hockey's top prize.
Tiger Woods shot 3 under 67 to take a one stroke lead over Sergio Garcia on a brutal opening day at Bethpage Black. Only six players broke 70 as 16 failed to birdie and 15 couldn’t break 80 in windy conditions. Woods said he avoided trouble and stuck to the plan on a course many feared.
Bowman said the focus was on players who had yet to win the Cup as he celebrated a hard fought victory. He recalled Woods’s 15 stroke U S Open triumph and noted that one poor shot can decide the outcome. Holmstrom emerged as a surprising playoff scorer while Shanahan stayed notable as a non winner.
