for a net 81, falling short of his fine<br />
showing last year at Sherwood C .C .<br />
The fourth Countrywider, Tom<br />
Banks, did repeat his performance<br />
of last year by shooting exactly net par .<br />
Banks, a 15-h<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g>icap, was a dem<strong>on</strong><br />
<strong>on</strong> the par-3s, playing the quartet<br />
in 1-under gross, 4-under net .<br />
Countrywide's team<br />
net of 8-over 292<br />
was good for a sec<strong>on</strong>d<br />
c<strong>on</strong>secutive first-place<br />
finish in the SkyTel<br />
West Regi<strong>on</strong>al . Their<br />
selected charity was,<br />
as always, the San<br />
Gabriel Valley Boy<br />
Scouts . The $3,000<br />
from this year's<br />
qualifier brings the<br />
troop's all-time SkyTelgenerated<br />
funding<br />
to over 510,000 .<br />
Sec<strong>on</strong>d <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> third<br />
place were secured by<br />
two teams scoring net<br />
296 : Amdahl Corp .<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Toyota Motor<br />
Sales . On a match of<br />
cards, Amdahl's team<br />
of Chuck F<strong>on</strong>ner, Ollie Nutt, Dave<br />
Anders<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Dave Chambers claimed<br />
sec<strong>on</strong>d, allowing the team to d<strong>on</strong>ate a<br />
SkyTel check for S2,000 to the Sec<strong>on</strong>d<br />
Harvest Food Bank.<br />
Amdahl arrived early <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> warmed<br />
up with jumbo baskets of range balls .<br />
Newcomer Anders<strong>on</strong>, an engaging,<br />
buoyant man who takes a huge rip<br />
at every ball, put in a solid rookie<br />
performance that resulted in an 8-over<br />
net 79 . His playing partner, Dave<br />
Chambers, "played 11 holes before<br />
hitting a fairway," but kept the wheels<br />
from falling off. On No, 1, Chambers<br />
recovered from an awful lie 2 feet<br />
in bounds to make a round-the-rim<br />
10-footer. On the l<strong>on</strong>g, par-3 fourth,<br />
Chambers drove weakly into the deep,<br />
half-acre bunker fr<strong>on</strong>ting the green,<br />
leaving himself 55 yards from the hole .<br />
He nipped a hellacious s<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> wedge<br />
to 20 inches, then tapped in for par .<br />
These two were paired with Novell<br />
Corporati<strong>on</strong>'s David Bradford <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Jan<br />
Newman, who may have helped them<br />
I<br />
An hour-!<strong>on</strong>g team warmup sessi<strong>on</strong><br />
paid dividends for Chuck F<strong>on</strong>ner<br />
(above) <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> his Amdahl mates,<br />
stav focused. Bradford ground around<br />
Riviera with the same intensity he<br />
showed last year at Sherwood . For<br />
his efforts, he w<strong>on</strong> the Lark Luggage<br />
L<strong>on</strong>gest Haul award as the player with<br />
the lowest score net<br />
score (75) from the<br />
most distant team<br />
(Novell is based<br />
in Orem, Utah) .<br />
The other Amdahl<br />
twosome of F<strong>on</strong>ner<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Ollie Nutt played<br />
well tee-to-green <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
did their scoring <strong>on</strong><br />
holes where the short<br />
games were working .<br />
For Nutt, whose<br />
Gnishing kick had<br />
him 3-over gross <strong>on</strong><br />
his last six holes, poor<br />
chipping ruined a<br />
birdie opportunity <strong>on</strong><br />
No . I <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> produced<br />
a double-bogey <strong>on</strong> the<br />
par-3 fourth . F<strong>on</strong>ner,<br />
despite skillfully<br />
h<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g>ling a l<strong>on</strong>g, downhill chip <strong>on</strong> that<br />
hole, missed his 7-footer <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> made<br />
bogey. An 8-h<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g>icap with a tight,<br />
efficient swing, F<strong>on</strong>ner carded a gross<br />
score higher than bogey <strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong>ly <strong>on</strong>e<br />
hole : the sec<strong>on</strong>d, Riviera's most difficult .<br />
Toyota's team was paced by the<br />
unflappable twosome of Irv<br />
Miller <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Bob Romero .<br />
Starting <strong>on</strong> 5o . 17 proved<br />
to be a disadvantage for the<br />
6-foot 5-inch Miller, who can<br />
crush it 300-plus <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> was<br />
expected to win the Taylor<br />
Made L<strong>on</strong>g Drive c<strong>on</strong>test .<br />
Instead, Millers first shot<br />
found the trees <strong>on</strong> the left<br />
side, <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g>-Jim Baker of Wyse<br />
Technologies captured the<br />
prize . Miller <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Romero<br />
each started bogey, doublebogey,<br />
then Miller threw in a<br />
triple-bogey before the twosome found<br />
their stride en route to a combined net<br />
score of 1-under. On the difficult nar-4<br />
12th, Miller chipped in from 40 feet<br />
for a birdie 3, then Romero sank a 15-<br />
foot birdie putt, making the twosome a<br />
combined 4-under net <strong>on</strong> that hole .<br />
The other Toyota twosome came<br />
ready to play as well . Dave Danzer,<br />
who bogeyed No . 6, his opening hole,<br />
faced a l<strong>on</strong>gish putt <strong>on</strong> the next hole<br />
just to save another bogey. The putt<br />
made a 270-degree loop around the<br />
cup before dropping . "Right in the<br />
center," gasped Danzer, who came<br />
out I-under net <strong>on</strong> his next six holes .<br />
Mike Rocco had a similar streak <strong>on</strong> the<br />
following six holes before suffering the<br />
dreaded twice-par maximum <strong>on</strong><br />
Riviera's historic 18th . He finished<br />
with a net 79 to Danzer's net 76 . The<br />
proceeds of the Toyota effort went<br />
to the Desert Jc Golf Associati<strong>on</strong> .<br />
Taylor Made distinguished itself as<br />
Mark King eamed America West Low<br />
Gross h<strong>on</strong>ors at 77 <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Chuck Yash,<br />
who hit his tee shot to within 2 feet<br />
<strong>on</strong> No . 16, w<strong>on</strong> a Jaeger-LeCoultre<br />
Reverso watch as the golfer closest to<br />
the pin . Ric Lebrecht of Unocal, with<br />
an adjusted score of 4-under 67, was<br />
the winner of the Productivity Point<br />
Internati<strong>on</strong>al Low Net prize . No golfer<br />
w<strong>on</strong> a Cadillac by scoring an ace <strong>on</strong><br />
the designated par-3 hole, the 14th,<br />
but many participants who took<br />
a pre-round Cadillac test drive were<br />
treated to interesting glimpses of the<br />
old L .A . estates off Sunset . Then it<br />
was time to remove the shades <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
play some golf .<br />
First place went to four experienced SkyTei golfers<br />
from Countrywide Funding .<br />
L-R: Tom Banks, Richard De(eo, SkyTei's<br />
Bob Vncent <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> Lisa Hatf~eid, :4larshaf! Gates<br />
