SPORTS BRIEFING
GOLF
Whoa, Nelly! Korda makes it 2 straight wins for her
family — Jessica Korda opened the LPGA Tour season last
month by winning the Tournament of Champions. On Sun-
day, it was Nelly’s turn. Nelly Korda followed in big sister’s
footsteps with a three-shot victory that looked easier than it
felt. She seized control with three birdies through six holes,
closed with 12 pars and shot a 3-under 69 at Lake Nona to win
the Gainbridge LPGA. “Yeah, Jess’ win, I was like, ‘OK, I got
to get one now,’” Korda said. “We were close that one year. She
won in Thailand and I was leading in Singapore. But it’s nice
to get back-to-back Korda wins now.”More than just matching
her sister, Korda won for the first time on American soil. The
other three victories for 22-year-old Nelly were in Australia
and twice in Taiwan. It also was the first time she won with
her parents watching. Her father, Petr Korda, is a former Aus-
tralian Open tennis champion.
Branden Grace closes eagle-birdie to win Puerto Rico
Open — Branden Grace closed eagle-birdie Sunday to win
the Puerto Rico Open, an emotional triumph following his
father’s January death after a month-long fight with the coro-
navirus. Grace holed out from a greenside bunker for eagle
on the par-4 17th and birdied the par-5 18th for a one-stroke
victory over Jhonattan Vegas at windy Grand Reserve. “This
morning I had a tear in the car when I was talking to my
wife,” Grace said about father Peter. “It was an emotional day.
I thought about him a hell of a lot out there, especially the last
tee shot. I was really struggling the last hole, because I knew
he was watching over me. I knew he was guiding me.” The
32-year-old South African player won for the second time on
the PGA Tour and 13th worldwide, closing with a 6-under 66
to finish at 19-under 269.
BASKETBALL
Blazers’ Simons to compete in dunk competition —
Add Anfernee Simons to the list of Portland Trail Blazers
participating in NBA All-Star weekend. Simons, according to
a report from Adrian Wojnarowski, has been selected to par-
ticipate in the Slam Dunk competition on Mar. 7 at the State
Farm Arena in Atlanta. Simons on Sunday re-posted items on
his Instagram account as if to confirm his participation in the
dunk contest. The Blazers have not yet made an announce-
ment. Simons will join Damian Lillard (All-Star game and
three-point contest) and Robert Covington at the All-Star
event. Covington reportedly will participate in the skills com-
petition. Simons doesn’t dunk very often in games because he
does most of his scoring from outside.

Oakland right-hander
Daulton Jefferies got a thrill
from facing the loaded Los
Angeles Dodgers lineup with
fans in the seats at last. The
limited crowd of 1,998 was a
sellout at Hohokam Stadium
in Mesa, Arizona.
“Even though it’s 20% capac-
ity it didn’t feel like it,” Jefferies
said. “Everyone was very loud.
It was just a lot of fun. I think
we truly underestimated how
much we missed it.”
The outlook for spring
training has changed drasti-
cally just in the past month.
Back in January, the Cactus
League sent a letter to MLB
suggesting that the spring
schedule be delayed because of
high COVID-19 case counts
in Maricopa County, which is
home to all 15 teams in Ari-
zona.
But then cases plummeted
in Arizona and the plan to
play games pushed forward.
Binsbacher and others became
much more optimistic.
For some fans, the progress
came too late.
Don Witynski is a 58-year-
old Milwaukee Brewers fan
from Wisconsin who has trav-
eled to Arizona the past four
years for about a week during
spring training. He said his
family of four would watch
three or four baseball games
but the trip also includes hik-
ing and other outdoor activi-
ties in the Arizona sun.

Not this year. He said most
of his friends are staying in
Wisconsin this year, though a
few will make the trip to the
desert.
“We’re hunkering down,
staying home,” Witynski said.
“I’ve got teenagers, 13-year-old
twins. Obviously until this vac-
cine rolls out more we’re defi-
nitely staying home this year
unfortunately.”
Those are the kinds of sto-
ries that have Arizona and
Florida bracing for another
year of lost revenue. But lim-
ited fans are better than no
fans. The appetite to watch
baseball appears strong: The
Rockies and Diamondbacks —
who share the Salt River Fields
facility — both sold out their
entire spring ticket allotments
about 24 hours after they went
public.
Delaney said he and Mier-
zwa were coming to Arizona
regardless of the baseball situ-
ation. They enjoy trail running
and Arizona in February is a
fine time for that sport. Busi-
nesses in Arizona hope there
more Delaneys and Mierzwas
out there to make 2021 a little
less painful.
“It’s all part of moving the
right direction,” Binsbacher
said. “I can’t stress enough –
health and safety was at the
forefront of everything we did.
But the financial numbers are
real. It definitely impacts our
businesses and the numbers
speak for themselves. It’s a tre-
mendous impact.”
The COVID-19 hit to cen-
tral Arizona’s baseball econ-
omy was stark: A study from
Arizona State University found
that the Cactus League’s season
generated an estimated eco-
nomic impact of $363.6 mil-
lion in 2020 before the shut-
down in mid-March, which
was down nearly $300 million
from the estimated $644.2 mil-
lion generated in 2018.
The study added that 2020
would have been “on a par”
with 2018 had it not been for
the coronavirus.
As for 2021, there is cau-
tious optimism that the Cac-
tus League season won’t be a
complete washout for the lo-
cal economy. But for hotels,
restaurants, bars, golf courses
and rental house companies,
there’s little doubt that finances
will take a hit for a second
straight year.
Stephanie Pressler, who is
the director of community af-
fairs for Experience Scottsdale,
said businesses are balancing
realism with a little optimism
now that COVID-19 cases
have gone down and all teams
are allowing at least some fans.
“This is normally the busi-
est time of year for Scottsdale’s
tourism industry, largely be-
cause of Cactus League spring
training,” Pressler said in an
email. “Understandably, our
expectations are muted this
year given the ongoing pan-
demic, though Experience
Scottsdale is excited that the
season is moving forward in a
way that will keep teams, fans,
employees and residents safe.”
