Not so for Canada’s downhill skiers. All summer, the Canadian men’s ski team has been training hard, without snow, for the start of the 1986-87 World Cup season — downhill races Aug. 9 and Aug. 15 in Las Lenas, Argentina. The races, south of the equator, give the team a chance to get back to good winter snow, and a brief taste of competition before the World Cup season gets into full swing in December. Glenn Wurtele, head coach of the men's team, looks upon the two early races as a test of the summer's tough training and conditioning program. “If something crops up down there . . . then you've got time to fix it before December,” Wurtele, 35, said prior to the downhill team's departure for Las Lenas. “The other thing we use it for is experience for younger guys who haven't raced a lot of World Cup like Rob (Boyd) and Brian (Stemmle),” he said. Felix Belezyk, 24, of Castlegar says the races in Argentina break up the boredom of off-season training, although it is difficult to prepare mentally for two isolated World Cup races in August. “You go down there, you have a couple of races and get into it and all of a sudden there's nothing to do again except train for another four months,” said Belezyk, whose best finish last season was a fourth at Kitzbuehel, Austria. He is ranked 33rd in the world. Boyd, 20, of Whistler, B.C., is newly promoted from Canada's B team after impressive results last year in some of the World Cup races, including a sixth at Are, Sweden, and a 10th at Val Gardena, Italy. He's ranked 29th in the World Cup downhill standings and is one of the youngsters Wurtele is counting on to improve this year as the team continues to build toward the 1988 Calgary Olympics. Belczyk off to Argentina “This year, it's going to take a lot to improve, but I think I can do it,” Boyd said. “I'd like to move up in ranking to 20th or around there, and have more top 10 finishes, or (even) in the top three.” Belezyk and Boyd will be travelling to Argentina with fellow national team members Don Stevens of Rossland, Scott Shaver of Ottawa, Mike Carney of Squamish, Chris Mclver of Rossland, Daniel Moar of Revelstoke, and Stemmle of Aurora, Ont. Canada’s top-ranked skier, Todd Brooker of Paris, Ont., is recuperating from knee surgery and will join the national team in December. Wurtele is looking for improvement in his young skiers this year, although he is taking nothing away from what he views as an excellent building season last year. “People say, ‘Well you didn’t win any medals,’ but we say to them, ‘Well, we had guys ranked in the 80s in the world who are now ranked in the 20s and guys who started in the 60s and placed in the top 10,’ ” said Wurtele.

McENROE SAYS Tennis no longer important as life STRATTON MOUNTAIN, Vt. (AP) -- John McEnroe says his life “is more important than my tennis” and that he took his sabbatical from the sport “to get my head together.” “If that means being No. 1, then that will happe McEnroe said Tuesday after posting a subdued 7-5, 6-3 victory over Marko Ostoja of Yugoslavia in his first tournament match in seven months. “But I'm willing to forego being No. 1 in order to be happy.” “Of course I'd like to be No. 1, but that’s not the most important thing at this point.” One of the most important things in McEnroe's life, his wife, actress Tatum O'Neal, was in the stands watching his first-round victory in the $315,000 Volvo International tournament Ina wide-ranging, 70-minute news conference following his mateh, McEnroe said his negative frame of mind caused him to suddenly walk away from the game that he has dominated over the last several years.

At least if I feel that I'm doing my best as far as being positive, then maybe if it doesn't turn around, I will feel more satisfied that I gave it my best effort because | just became too resentful of everything “I don't know how I did it before, to be honest.
