    Patterson: Distractions, pressure hurt her play
fH Continued from Page 7
But this season has not been
such a fairy tale for Patterson.
After placing in the top 10 in
three of Oregon’s four fall compe
titions, Patterson has just one top
10 finish in six spring tourna
ments and her round average has
risen to 76.4.
Patterson and Baumgartner
both say that some of her drop-off
in production this season is be
cause of a swing change that will
benefit her in the long run.
“This year, I haven’t been trust
ing my swing, and I’ve gone
through a lot of changes,” Patter
son says.
She says she needs to refocus
herself mentally in order to regain
her championship form at region
al.
“This year, I’ve kind of got in
the back of my head, ‘Hmm, I’m
going to be doing this for a living
next year. I’ve got to play good.’
And that’s put some pressure on. I
want to finish good again this year
and prove to everyone that I can
do it again.”
Baumgartner says she is confi
dent that Patterson will recover
from her tie for 32nd at the Pacif
ic-10 Conference Championships
and peak at regionals and the
NCAA Championships. Oregon
needs to finish in the top 11 as a
team at regionals to qualify for the
championships, which will begin
May 20 in Madison, Wis.
“I look to her to put some solid
rounds together and to really en
joy her senior year and her last
few rounds as a college golfer,”
Baumgartner says.
Once her last college round is
over, Patterson plans to test her
skills in professional golf. After a
summer of practice, she hopes to
qualify for the PGA Tour in Au
gust.
Baumgartner says she believes
Patterson has all the tools neces
sary to realize her pro dreams.
“This is something that I told
Paula," Baumgartner says. “Any
first team All-American, they
have something special. If she re
ally wants to go out and turn pro
and give 110 percent, she’s going
to make it. She’s just one of those
diamonds in the rough that came
along and really blossomed and
has been a great player for us."
If Patterson goes on to have as
much success in the professional
ranks as she has had in collegiate
golf, she will be able to adorn her
bag with bundles of cash and give
it an entirely new fragrance.
Rematch between Johnson, Bailey is a possibility
Representatives for the two
sprinters are talking about
a rematch in New York
By Paul Newberry
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Contrary to
what some think, Michael John
son is not consumed by the idea
of a rematch with Donovan Bai
ley.
“I get asked about it all the
time, but for me it’s a non-issue,”
Johnson said Tuesday during a
stop to promote this summer’s
Goodwill Games in New York.
“Once a race is over, it’s done
with, it’s finished. You have to
take the bad with the good.”
Johnson, the Olympic champi
on at 200 and 400 meters, and
Bailey, the gold medalist in the
100-meter dash, met last year in a
made-for-TV, 150-meter match
race in Toronto. The ballyhooed
event failed to live up to expecta
tions when Johnson pulled up
injured about 70 meters into the
race and Bailey streaked to an
unsatisfying victory.
Now, representatives of the
two sprinters are talking about a
sequel in New York.
Johnson said he isn’t against
the proposal, which faces myriad
problems before it becomes real
ity. But he felt as if he made a sig
nificant sacrifice to take part in
last year’s race and is looking for
more of a legitimate track event
to stage any rematch.
“I don’t think about it daily
and say to myself, ‘I've got to do
this again,”' he said. "I look at it
just like I would any potential
race. It's separate from what's
happened in the past or anything
like that. Certainly, if the Good
will Games wants to put that on
and if it works for me, I’ll be
there.”
From Johnson's standpoint,
that means there’s no chance
he’ll race down a temporary track
through Times Square, as has
been suggested to hype the event.
“One of the mistakes last time
was having it in SkyDome on a
track that was just rubber laid out
over concrete,” Johnson said. "It
had lumps and things like that.
But that was something I felt like
needed to happen for the good of
the sport.”
