“I can’t say I love fun golf. I love competitive golf. I like getting the butterflies and feeling nervous,” said Hardy, who posted a second straight two over par 74 at Transcona Golf Club to hold a seven stroke lead heading into Friday’s final round of the 54-hole Manitoba Women’s Amateur Championship.

Holding down first place in the Senior Women’s Championship is Noreen Stewart at 163 after a smooth 78 on Thursday.

Hardy will enter Friday’s action sitting at 148 with Sarah Stebeleski her closest pursuer at 155. Kaitlin Troop is in third with a two-day total of 165.

“I was even par when I got to 18 and then I made a double. I got a little nervous and a little quick. I tend to hook it when I get quick,” said Hardy, 27.

A pharmacist at CancerCare Manitoba, Hardy says golf gives her a rush she enjoys.

‘I like winning’

“I like golf and I like my job too,” said Hardy, a University of Manitoba graduate. “They’re different. I like the balance I have in my life right now. I like winning and I’m competitive. Both my parents and my brother are competitive. I grew up playing a lot of sports and I’ve always liked to win.”

Hardy said a three-putt on the sixth green got her head spinning but she was able to talk herself down.

“I started thinking negative thoughts. That’s when bad things happen on the golf course,” said Hardy. “I started taking some deep breaths and going through exercises. I’ve done some work with a sports psychologist. I was shaking a bit out there. I like the feeling you get from competitive golf. It makes you a better player. There are some good players out here and you have to play well to succeed. You like to follow a bad shot with a good shot and I was able to.”

With less wind to protect the course after Wednesday’s blustery conditions, Golf Manitoba made the pin placements difficult.

“It was tough to attack the pin and make birdies,” said Hardy. “It was another tough test.”

Heading into Friday’s round, Hardy expects another mental struggle.

“I’ll be nervous on the first tee. I’ll try to get a good sleep and not worry abut it too much. I’ll try to come out and play my game,” said Hardy. “You have to focus on playing the course and not the other players.”

Ken Wiebe goes tee to green with Derek Ingram, a two-time winner as CPGA teaching professional of the year and co-founder of the University of Manitoba golf program.

The Sun: What was it that drew you to golf?

DI: I liked the individualness of it, that you could practise on your own and if you hit a bad shot, you had to look in the mirror. I love the independence of it.

The Sun: Did you watch a lot of golf on TV as a youngster?

DI: I loved watching golf after I got into it. Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus were heroes. Watching them was awesome.

The Sun: When did you know you wanted to pursue a career as a pro golfer?

DI: I knew when I saw Nicklaus win the ‘86 Masters that I wanted to play the game for a living. As a kid I dreamt of being a PGA Tour player. I wasn’t a great junior player, but I went to junior college for a year in Paris, Texas, just outside of Dallas. The school wasn’t very good but I got a lot better. I came back because the school was so easy, I thought I better get a university degree to have something to fall back on. I finished my degree at U of M. At that point, I thought I could be a pharmacist but I really wanted to try being a golf pro. I gave it a try as an assistant pro at Niakwa and I really enjoyed it.

The Sun: You played parts of two years (1998 and 1999) on the Canadian Tour. Looking back, is there anything you would have done differently?

DI: Quite frankly, there’s a lot of things, if I knew then what I know now. I was a little inconsistent with my work ethic. I needed a coach, for sure. There’s no chance to make it without a coach. I was under-funded as well, generally using my own money. It’s almost impossible to do it that way. I got a lot better in those two years. I was coaching and teaching before that and I knew I wanted to do that. In fact, I was still coaching and teaching while I was playing. I really didn’t commit completely to playing and it’s probably because I just love helping people achieve their goals, as much as mine.

The Sun: What makes a good teacher?

DI: Probably the ability to listen is most important and you have to care, to the point where it keeps you up at night. You want to search the internet, read books and ask people questions to find out the answers because it just drives you crazy that you have to help somebody. People who are willing to try anything to help people get better and sometimes having the ability to be quiet and listen.

The Sun: I know that you don’t get to play as much, but has teaching helped make you a better player?

DI: There’s no question it’s helped my game. I’m probably a better player now than when I played (on the Canadian Tour). I’m more complete now than when I was playing for a living.

The Sun: Do you have an off-season?

DI: For me, it’s become a full-time job, coaching, teaching and travelling year-round.

The Sun: What other sports do you enjoy?

DI: I love all sports. I love baseball, I loved badminton growing up, basketball, curling. But I love hockey, it’s probably my favourite sport in the world.

The Sun: What do you love most about golf?

DI: The biggest thing for me is the feel and the sound of well-struck shots. I also love the beauty of being out on the course by yourself or with friends. I just love the game.

The Sun: Your work with Canada’s national program has taken you around the world, could you have envisioned that when you first started teaching and coaching?

he fork in the road is directly ahead and two of Manitoba’s finest women players will take different paths.

Two-time former amateur champ Jill Hardy, now playing out of Elmhurst, is already on hers.

After much consideration in recent years, Hardy, 27, has decided her career in pharmacy and amateur golf will do just fine and to that end, has entered next week’s Manitoba Amateur to try to wrest the crown back from two-time defending champ Kaitlin Troop of Brandon.

A different way will be taken by 2005 Amateur champ Stacy Bieber of St. Charles.

The 23-year-old is finished with her finance studies at TCU and has decided to turn pro later this year.

Bieber, who along with Hardy played this week’s CN Canadian Women’s Tour event at Glendale, will not be present for the Manitoba Amateur at Transcona next week, due mainly to work commitments at her new home in Fort Worth, Texas.

She will play a U.S. amateur qualifier in San Antonio in July before returning to Winnipeg for the Canadian Women’s Amateur that begins July 29 at Glendale.

Bieber missed nearly two months of golf this spring because of a hand injury. Prior to that, she played some mini-tour events.

A team of Manitoba’s top amateur players is out to buck a trend this weekend in Bismarck, N.D., at the bi-annual North America Cup matches.

The competition against North Dakota’s finest amateurs is taking place at the excellent Hawktree Golf Club. Practice rounds were Friday, then it’s four-ball matches this morning followed by alternate-shot matches in the afternoon. Sunday, the singles matches take place.

Jesse Skelton, Scott Markham, Brad Kirton, Garth Collings, Scott Borsa, Tyler Mancini, Peter More, Stewart Bannatyne and non-playing captain Don Cook comprise Manitoba’s team.

Manitoba won the last playing in 2006 at Larters but the home team has hoisted the cup four straight times since 2000.

As part of the upcoming Canadian junior girls championship to be staged at St. Charles Aug. 5-8, the RCGA’s Future Links program will be helping to conduct a special junior girls club day on Aug. 4, the Monday before the championship begins.

“This is going to be a fun day for girls who haven’t yet or are already playing golf,” said St. Charles head pro Cory Kartusch. “Any girl in the city is welcome to come.”

Kartusch said there will be as many as five Canadian PGA instructors present. The clinic will be divided into two sections, one for ages 7 to 11 and the other for ages 12 to 18.

“For the younger ones, we’re going to have a lot of the fun type of stuff and for the older ones, we’ll have a little more instruction,” Kartusch said.

“And after each of them, they’ll get to make their own sundaes and pile it all on there. And there will also be an opportunity for the girls to stick around to watch some of the best players in the country practice and hit balls as they get ready for the tournament.”

The clinic — and the free ice cream — is open to the first 60 girls registered. To register, call the St. Charles pro shop at 888-8229.

The 15-year-old Toronto golfer was cruising along with an unthinkable, can-do-no-wrong, 10-under-par score after 16 holes during the opening day of the CN Future Links Prairie championship, only to bogey the final two holes.

Still, he finished with an impressive eight-under-par 64 for a five-stroke lead on Winnipeg’s Derek East and Toronto’s Albin Choi, who carded three-under-par 69s.

John Neufeld, of Courtenay, B.C., and Thomas Hay, of Langley, B.C, are next at two-under, each firing a 70.

Saskatoon’s Jesse Gibson sits tied for sixth, seven shots back of the leader, after a 71. Jonathan Kim-Moss, of Mississauga, Ont., and Bryan Lichimo, of North Vancouver, also shot 71.

“It wasn’t easy,” Jung said of his 64. “The wind was picking up. My putting went really well. I was draining everything. Everything went well for me. I got some lucky breaks, also.”

Jung missed a four-foot putt for par on No. 17. “That got me mad,” he said. “I tried to calm down and get focused. Unfortunately, I misjudged my second shot (on No. 18) and that caused me to bogey.”

Saskatoon’s Troy Bulmer and Humboldt’s Mark Herperger each shot a 73. Brad Blair of Lanigan had a 74, Furdale’s Jordan Arndt carded a 75 and Saskatoon’s Mark Diakiw struggled for a 81.

On the junior girls’ side, Michelle Lee of Mississauga, Ont., and A Ram Choi, of Surrey, B.C., lead after opening rounds of even-par 72.

The three-day CN Future Links Prairie championship continues today at 7:30 a.m. at the Willows and wraps up Thursday.

he 43-year-old former full-time PGA Tour member has not played a tournament since last October’s qualifying school but said he’s determined to revive a tour career.

“I’m trying to get in some Nationwide (Tour events) but I haven’t yet,” Hnatiuk said from his Florida home on Thursday.

“We’ll see how the summer goes. I’ve been working on my game and we’ll see how it progresses, how my swing progresses.

“I’m trying to compete again and I’ve got some swing changes going, all for the better, and if there’s some progress in my game then we’ll see about going to tour school.”

A rash of injuries hastened Hnatiuk’s exit from the PGA Tour on a full-time basis.

He hasn’t played an event since the 2005 Canadian Open and he hasn’t played full-time tour golf since 2006, when he played the Nationwide Tour.

But his latest problem, a bad shoulder, has healed and the pressure and stress he put on it to prepare for and compete in last fall’s Q-school, plus his recent work, tells him it’s fine.

“Physically, I feel pretty good,” Hnatiuk said. “Those injuries I went through were tough, but I’m feeling pretty fit and I work at being fit. I can say my body’s better than when I went on tour.

“And my age? I haven’t thought of it until I play with somebody out of college, but other than that, never.”

Hnatiuk’s addition to the Players Cup field brings together a fairly stellar collection of Manitobans for this Canadian Tour event.

Tournament director Mitch Zalnasky said Thursday that in addition to recent winner Adam Speirs, he expects tour members Ryan Horn and Matt Johnston to be in the starting field, along with three-time Canadian Tour champ Rob McMillan.

In addition, tournament exemptions have been extended to Dean North and Derek Ingram of the Manitoba section of the Canadian PGA, as well as amateurs Brad Kirton, the 2007 Manitoba amateur champ, and Garth Collings, who will be inducted into the Manitoba Golf Hall of Fame this fall.

Hnatiuk has a very low category of status on the Nationwide Tour based on his four career victories, but said he’s itching to play some tournament golf.

And so the Canadian Tour, where he kept a membership all the years he played the tours in the U.S., will be his 2008 debut.

“Competition is great everywhere; it doesn’t matter where you go, to the Nationwide or Canadian Tours,” he said. “I expect to have to play my best to win or have a chance.”

Whether he’s been playing or not, he knows there will be expectations.

“It doesn’t matter at what point you are, when you enter, you expect to win and I’m going to do my best,” said Hnatiuk, who will do the Monday Investors Group KidSport clinic at Pine Ridge during tournament week.

“I’m not going to guarantee anything. I haven’t played a tournament since tour school but I was extended this invitation and for the first time in a long time I didn’t have to take a week off the big tour to come, so I took it.
