But last year, the 28-year- old product of the Brigham Young U ity golf pro- gram finally got it together and the rewards were grati- fying — $111,982 in official tour winnings and 50th place overall on the PGA money- winning list. Nelford kicked off traces of self-destruction that dogged his weekend play during his early tour years and opened the 1983 season by making the cut in 30 consecutive tournaments, tops on the PGA tour. His 354 birdies was 10th best on the list and only 40 behind first-place Hal Sutton, the tour’s top money- winner. The former Canadian ama- teur champion's performance won him pro golfer of the year in the Score magazine awards announced last week. Players joining Nelford at the awards dinner here Mon- day night were Danny Mi- jovie of Toronto, Canadian men’s amateur champion; women's amateur champ Dawn Coe of Lake Cowichan, club in Woodbridge, Ont., as club supérintendent; Don Price of Calgary’s Canyon Meadows club, outstanding club professional; and Vienna-trained Hannes Bros- chek of Bayview Golf and Country Club. in Toronto, outstanding in the field of management. Nelford, who hits right handed off the tee and fair- ways but putts left-handed, paired with last year’s Score award winner, Dan Halldor- son, in 1980 to win the World Cup team title. But it wasn’t until 1983 that he started to put toge- ther consistent rounds that saw him chase Fuzzy Zoeller in the Sea Pines Heritage Classic before slipping two strokes off the pace. —— Recreation news The response to the winter program has been over- whelming.

His optimism is shared by the young but experienced skaters. “I think a gold medal is within reach,” says Orser, whose main adversary is expected to be thi champion Scott Hamilton of the United States. unrealistic Baal. “If go there and skate my best and don't win, that'll be OK . . . but I'm hoping to win, aiming for that.” In addition to Orser, Canada’s main hope for a figure skating medal is in pairs with Barbara Underhill of Oshawa, Ont., and Paul Martini of Woodbridge, Ont. 5) ‘Underhill and Martini, bronze medallists at lest year's” Canadian Worlds, were unable to compete at the recent in Regina because of stretched ligaments Underhill suffered during practice, ** Martini says that while Underhill is not 100 per cent, re. to the point where we get a good hour end a half every day with all the elements.” ‘While Orser, Underhill and Martini are Canada's best medal prospects, ladies’ champion Kay Thomson of Toronto ‘can't be. ignored. “Realistically I think I can win a medal,” says Thomson, seventh at the 1983 world championships. “Some people think that's out of reach — but I think it's realistic, and believing in yourself is all that matters.” M appears fully recovered from early-season tendinitis. But she and Elizabeth Manley of Ottawa will have a difficult time making gains at Sarajevo against the likes of Americans Rosalynn Sumners, the reigning world champion, and former titleholder Elaine Zayak. Only three relatively inexperienced Canadian skaters are not anticipating top-10 placings. Those are Jaimee Eggleton of St-Bruno, Que., the Canadian junior men's champion, and the pairs team of Melinda Kunhegyi of Burlington, Ont., and Lyndon Johnston of Hamiota, Man. et oy ) “This is our first year competing at world level so. we’ ¢an’t really expect too much,” said Kanhegyl “Our goal is just. to skate our best.” Most of the Canadian skaters think that may be easier to do at the Olympics than at the nationals because the — pressure will be less intense. “The most nerve-wracking competition on Earth is the _ Canadians,” said Gary Beacom of Toronto, who nearly wrested Orser's title away. “I don’t think the Olympies will bé any more nerve-wracking than any other competition.” The dance team of Tracy Wilson, 22, of Port Moody, and Robert McCall, 25, of Darthmouth, N. gree that Sarajevo will be more relaxing and that could give them an outside shot at a medal. They were sixth in the world last year but admit moving upin the dance standings is difficult. “We'd be happy with anywhere from fourth to sixth,” said McCall. “Wy think medals are pretty much out of the question right nck. We're aiming for it, but we'd be really happy with fourth. The team left Sunday to train for a week in West Germany before heading to Sarajevo on Feb. 4.
