SPORTS BRIEFING
TRACK AND FIELD
After setting collegiate record, Oregon’s Cooper Teare
gets national honor — Oregon has competed in two
meets so far this indoor season and set collegiate records in
both. They’ve also produced the U.S. Track & Field and Cross
Country Coaches Association’s national men’s Division I ath-
lete of the week. Cooper Teare, who led the fastest 1-2 finish in
the history of the NCAA indoor mile, earned the national rec-
ognition Tuesday. Oregon’s Charlie Hunter earned the same
recognition two weeks ago. Last Friday at the Tyson Invita-
tional in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Teare set the collegiate record
with a 3-minute, 50.39-second performance, breaking the
previous record held by former Oregon star Edward Cheserek,
who ran 3:52.01 in 2017. The senior was quickly followed
across the line by teammate Cole Hocker in 3:50.55, the sec-
ond-fastest collegiate time. Hocker, a 19-year-old sophomore,
also recorded the fastest American U20 indoor mile time in
history. Teare and Hocker rank seventh and eighth, respec-
tively, on the world all-time performance list.

Jordan Spieth now has gone 80 individual tournaments worldwide since his last victory at Royal Birkdale in the 2017 British Open.
Golf
Continued from A5
Never having a chance to
win on the weekend, having
to make a 12-foot par putt on
the 18th hole just to make the
cut at the Masters or missing
the cut left him numb. That’s
worse than the sting of missing
out on a chance to win on the
back nine.
The next step is doing away
with all the drama.
Spieth knows his game isn’t
as sharp as it was or as it needs
to be, so there was some small
satisfaction in still being able to
take a lead into the final round.
“But at the same time, it’s
very difficult to go out know-
ing that you don’t have your
best stuff and to go out there
with my own expectation that
I’m going to win,” he said. “I
just hope that I continue to
progress like this to where I
can stand on that first tee as
confident as I historically have
been and ... I can go out and
play boring golf and just hit a
bunch of greens and make it
a really easy 18 holes to win a
golf tournament.”
Easy as it once seemed to be.
Hard as ever now.
“I’ve never seen such an unfair race. Parallel races have to be
straight. You can’t have the course turning like that. Whoever
started on the blue course in the first run had already practically
won. I’m really angry and I don’t know if I’ll get over it.”
hill standout who is out for the
season after injuring her knee a
week before the worlds.
Earlier Tuesday, Bassino
only just made the cut after
qualifying also ended in confu-
sion. Official result sheets did
not specify which 16 racers ac-
tually advanced to the knock-
out phase.
Ranked 17th, the Italian
seemed out of the race until it
became clear that it wasn’t the
16 fastest skiers overall who
advanced, but but the top eight
from each course.
That rule saved the Italian,
who was eighth-fastest on the
red course.
Bassino said she felt “sorry”
to have eliminated her team-
mate Brignone in the quarter-
finals.
“But that’s our sport. We
have to fight one against one
other,” she said.
BASKETBALL
Spurs have 4 players positive, Atlanta has All-Star
concerns — The San Antonio Spurs are dealing with a coro-
Skiing
navirus outbreak among four players, the NBA said Tues-
day, meaning the team will not play until the middle of next
week at the earliest. Meanwhile, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance
Bottoms — whose city was picked to play host to the NBA
All-Star Game and skills competitions on March 7 — raised
major concerns about the notion of fans coming to the city
for the events. “People should not travel to Atlanta to party,”
she said. The NBA on Tuesday postponed five more games:
the next three for the Spurs — at Cleveland on Wednesday, at
New York on Saturday and at Indiana on Monday — as well
as the next two for the Charlotte Hornets while contact trac-
ing is completed. Their games are halted because they were
the last team to play the Spurs, losing to them on Sunday.
