TThe competition might have been sponsored by UL, but there was no spark. The Americans were blanked by England in the opening best-ball matches, just as they had been shut out in the first day’s matches at Caves Valley in Maryland two years ago. That trouble carried through to the Saturday playoff in 2014. The Americans lost it, eliminat- ing them from the Sunday finals. This time, however, the U.S. squad rallied. , Stacy Lewis, and Gerina Piller stormed back to win the Crown at Merit Club, picking up three points on the second day, a four-point sweep on the third day, and col- lecting six points by winning three of four match- es on the final day. Kerr, Lewis and Piller won on Sunday to lift the American total to 13 points to ’s 12. Of the other finalists, England and Taiwan tied with 11 and , with eight points, was fifth.

He was low amateur, a good showing for a 20-year-old. That was pleasing, but hardly his ultimate goal. COn Wednesday, July 20, at Royal Fox Country Club, Sainz did himself one better, breaking away in the final round to win the 67th Illinois Open by five strokes with a record score of 17-under-par 197. “It’s big,” Sainz said. “I’ve wanted to win this the last four or five years since I turned pro.” He succeeded in grand fashion, firing his second Scoring summary on Page 22 straight 6-under 65, this one bogey free, at Royal Fox to go with an opening 5-under 67 at Royal Hawk Country Club. The back-to-back 65s for 130 don’t add up to a record – David Cooke, the winner last year at Royal Melbourne, still owns that at 128 – but Sainz wrested the tournament scoring and relation-to-par marks away from Cooke in style. With one bogey in his last 45 holes, Sainz played with the demeanor of a confident man. With family and friends from nearby Elgin on hand, he walked on the first tee with a four-stroke lead and birdied four of the first six holes, in- cluding a 40-footer up a ridge on the par-4 third hole. That expanded his lead to five strokes over eventual runner-up Christian Heavens of Fairview Heights and to six over Chicagoan Brad Hopfinger, who took third. Birds on the fourth and sixth followed, and it was then only a matter of how

The dagger came on the 16th, when he punctuated a curling 25-footer for a birdie 3 with a fist pump and a celebratory walk to the cup. “Those were bonuses,” Sainz said. But he also said, “You have to believe they’re going in.” Sainz believed deeply. With his mother Rose as his nominal caddie, Sainz played his best golf since winning a mini-tour tournament in Florida earlier this year. Since then, he’s played good but not great golf, working on his swing and getting into tour- naments when he could. It’s tough to keep one’s confidence intact during such a stretch, especially after losing one’s PGA Tour card. “Confidence is a lot in this game,” Sainz said. “The guys on tour, they say that when you’re playing well, you have to feel you can win the tournament.” That’s what Sainz is aiming for on a regular basis. “I felt good all the way,” Sainz said. “I knew they had to come catch me today.” The victory, more than the $17,500 first prize, will boost that confidence when he jumps on the Mackenzie Tour, the PGA Tour’s Canadian oper- ation, for the weeks leading to the Tour’s qualify- ing tournaments. The better he plays in Canada, Tim Cronin / Illinois Golfer the fewer “Q School” stages he has to play in.
