Tony Jacklin wins Franklin Quest Championship by LISA ANTONUCCI Record staff writer Lucky for Tony Jacklin, nowhere in the rules of golf does it say that winning has to be pretty. pret-ty. With a three-putt bogey on the final hole, Jacklin finished with a 10-under par 206 and clinched the winner's trophy, the $90,000 first-place first-place check and an exempt status at this weekend's Franklin Quest Championship at the Park Meadows Golf Club. "I've never three-putted the last hole and won anything," said an elated Jacklin. "If you play this game long enough, everything every-thing happens to you. I really thought there would be a playoff." Jacklin was referring to the pack of second-place finishers who jockeyed back and forth all afternoon before settling at a total of 207 (-9). Included in the group were the 1993 and '94 champions Dave Stockton and Tom Weiskopf, as well as John Paul Cain, Rives McBee, Bruce Summerhays and Simon Hobday. Bruce Devlin, Jack Keifer and Don Bies all finished two strokes back at 208. The victory was Jacklin's second sec-ond since joining the Senior PGA Tour last year he won the rain-shortened rain-shortened First America Classic last season. Jacklin who captured the 1969 British Open at Royal Lytham then won the U.S. Open at Hazeltine Golf Club 1 1 months later, was in danger of losing his exempt status for 1996. "Prior to this week I had only two top 10 finishes," noted Jacklin. "I thought I was playing too much so I took last week off. I needed a break and it turned out dW X, photo by David BertineHi Miners' defenders Ted Hunsaker and Matt Provost attempt to bring down a Spartans' running back in a 28-7 loss to Emery in their first league game. Miners suffer 28-7 setback against league rival Emery Spartans . by JOLENE S. AUBEL Record staff writer In its first league game of the season, sea-son, the Park City Miners Football Team lost 28-7 to the state top-three ranked Emery Spartans Friday night at Dozier Field. The Spartans, led by junior quarterback quar-terback Evan Stilson racked up 319 yards of total offense, with 179 in the air and 140 on the ground. ' Stilson's stellar performance included 13 for 19 passing attempts for 179 yards and two touchdowns. For the Miners,' their opening offense drive resulted in them punting punt-ing deep in their own territory. The snap from PC center Mike Hessick went over punter Ryan Harder's head. Harder fell on the ball in the end zone resulting in the Spartans' first points of the game and a safety, 2-0. With the rain coming down making mak-ing it difficult to hold onto the ball, the opening quarter of action ended to be just the tonic. Now I can relax and just play golf for the last eight or nine events. What a relief!" On Sunday's crowded leader-board, leader-board, Jacklin was the only player to reach 1 1 under, which he did by sinking a 15-foot eagle putt on the par-5 No. 14. The eagle topped off a five-hole run which included three birdies and a par, and led the Brit to a 32 on the back side. "I won the tournament on the first five holes on the back nine," he said. His eagle was followed by a bogey five at No. 15, which he recovered with his fifth birdie of the day at the par-5 No. 17. On No. 1 8 green in two, Jacklin three-putted from 35 feet, missing a four-footer for his par. The miss left the door open for players in the last two groups. But none, including local professional pro-fessional Summerhays, could come up with the necessary birdie. The Heber City pro made a double bogey on the 16th and never could catch up. "It was wonderful that I had a chance to tie at the end," said Summerhays. "I was well with in my game except for two shots coming in. I hit a good putt from about 18 feet at the last hole I just read it wrong. "I'm just grateful for all the people who came out and supported sup-ported me today. The walk up 18 took my breath away. I've got many more years to come I'll win one for the fans eventually." Stockton also said he was pleased with his play overall, even though he "didn't get it done" in the long run. "It was a -c , 7- ' -' ' V" -'.. with the Spartans still up 2-0. A Miners fumble deep in their own territory helped to set up Emery's first touchdown when running run-ning back Jarrod Price bulldozed down to the 5-yard line for a first down. Stilson's threw a touchdown pass to Price with 11:55 left in the second quarter and a 8-0 lead. The extra point by Darrell Wilson was good and the Miners were down 9-0. Capitalizing on a spectacular 45-yard 45-yard return kick-off return by Miner junior Ted Hunsaker who was only one step away from taking it for a score, the Miners offense came alive with a successful mix of their passing game and the run. Troy Jewkes, Harder and Barry Ames all played a key role in the Miners first scoring drive with Brandon Boggs at quarterback. Senior Jake Hanley, who suffered a concussion in last week's game against North Summit, sat out on the sidelines. Hanley will likely return for the Miners' next game against really good day I was as focused as I've ever been on the Senior Tour." Play began Friday with 61 -year old Ben Smith shooting a record-tying record-tying nine-under 63. Smith took a two shot lead over Larry Laoretti and tied Stockton's 1993 final round score. South African Simon Hobday made a run of it Friday as well with a solid 66, leaving him three shots back. Saturday proved to be an adventure for almost everyone who teed it up. Laoretti made three birdies, three pars and three bogeys on the front side and a triple-bogey, birdie and eagle on the back. It may have been an even-par 72, but there was nothing noth-ing even about it. Summerhays struggled, posting three-straight bogeys on the front before turning it around, scoring six birdies and posting a 30 for the back. George Archer, suffering from some lingering effects of food poisoning, made eight birdies and shot the day's low round of 65. First round leader Smith faded away with an 80 and eventually finished the tournament at 213 (-4). (-4). Hobday and Don Bies seemingly seem-ingly avoided the rollercoaster that their fellow players were riding rid-ing and took the lead at 8-under going into Sunday's round. In the Super Seniors division, Dick Rhyan captured his second over-60 title of the year, defeating Dick Hendrickson in a playoff. Both players posted a 36-hole total of 140. Rhyan earned $15,000 for the victory. The tournament actually kicked off Wednesday with two North Sanpete. ' Jewkes scored the first Miners points with 8:54 left in the half on a touchdown run. Sean Tolpinrud added the extra point cutting the Emery lead to 9-7. "I liked this game a lot better than last week," said Miners Coach Paul Tomasiewicz. "The players were intense and they gave it their best." Late in the second quarter with time running out on the clock, the Miners drove deep into Emery territory. terri-tory. An intentional grounding call left the Miners with a third and goal from the 24-yard-line and no timeouts time-outs remaining. Boggs' pass attempt to Chason Memmott fell incomplete. Miners kicker Tolpinrud's 41-yard 41-yard field goal attempt fell way short leaving the 9-7 to stand to end the second half. At the end of the half, Jewkes rushed for seven carries for 17 yards and one touchdown.
