Street (Evergreen Park) 4238675 Jk'f From Chicago Tribune wire No player has won the Grand Slam of women's golf, but Pat Bradley is halfway there. Sinking a dramatic 12-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole, Bradley beat Patty Sheehan by a stroke Sunday to win the LPGA Championship in Mason, Ohio.

It was the first time Bradley has won the LPGA. Coupled with her victory in the Dinah Shore, the tour's leading money-winner has captured two of the four majors. "It's a tough chance, but if I'm halfway I'll give it my best to bring it all the way through," Bradley said, about completing a Grand Slam. "The Open is without a doubt the toughest major coming up. But I've won the Open before' The women's U.S.

Open, which Bradley won in 1981, will be July 10-13 in Dayton. The du Maurier Classic, the final Grand Slam event, will be July 24-27 in Toronto. Bradley started the round four shots' behind' Ayako Okamoto, who paired the first 11 holes to maintain a two-stroke advantage. Bradley, playing in a group in front of Okamoto, birdied Nos. 13 and 14 to pull even.

She then took the lead for good by chipping in from the fringe on the par-3 16th for a birdie. Okamoto fell out of contention with a bogey on No. 1 6. She finished tied for third with Juli Inkster, two shots behind Bradley. Bradley's lead was reduced to one by a bogey on the 17th.

Sheehan, playing in the same threesome with Bradley, birdied the 18th to tie for the lead, but Bradley calmly sank her putt for a 4-under-par 68 and a 277 total. "I've dreamt of winning this tournament with a birdie on the last hole, and my dream came true," Bradley said. "Patty made a tremendous birdie, but I told myself, 'My day isn't over, I can still end it right It's amazing about the human body and mind. When you really need something, you can dig down for that extra bit." The victory was Bradley's third in the last seven weeks, and her $45,000 first-place check increased her yearly earnings to $271,149 twice as much as anyone else on the tour, "My number's come up, and I'm riding it as long as I can, Bradley said. Bradley has 19th career victories and has 200 top 10 finishes during her 13 years on the tour.

Kemper Open Two years ago, Greg Norman won this tournament in a breeze, leading by seven strokes after three rounds and finishing with a five-shot margin. This time, Norman needed a six-hole playoff to beat Larry Mize in Bethesda, Md. It was the longest playoff on the PGA Tour since the 1983 Canadian Open, when John Cook beat Johnny Miller on the sixth extra hole. Norman, who started the day three strokes behind Mize, sank a 2-foot par putt for his fourth career victory. The putt was merely a formality after Mize put his approach shot into the water and then hit his next shot into another water hazard on the other side of the green.

They had paired the first five playoff holes. "It's sad to win like this," Norman said. "It's nice to win, but I would rather have won with a birdie." Norman shot a 6-under 66 to tie Mize at 277. Mize barely missed a 25-foot birdie putt on the 72d hole. It was Norman's first playoff victory in four tries.

The $90,000 first prize gave him $447,109 in earnings, tops on the tour this year. It was the second straight year that Mize has finished second in the Kemper. He tied last year with Corey Pavin. "Well, here I am again, I'm afraid," Mize said. "Second place again.

No whistle came, and Socrates headed the ball into the net at 63 minutes. "It was a good test for us to face such a closed defense, and it was important for us to win this first game," San tana said. "The players produced perhaps more than I had expected of them for this first game, and I am satisfied." The Spaniards, the European runners-up in 1984, seemed content to attempt long kicks by Zubizarreta, hoping for a mistake by the Brazilian defense.

That strategy was in keeping with the statements of coach Miguel Mufoz, who said his main con cern was preventing Brazil from scoring. Spain momentarily came out of its defensive shell in the second half, and Tonio Maceda hit the goalpost with a 20-yard shot. The Spaniards argued the ball was in, but referee Christopher Bambridge of Australia said no. Brazil had a goal disallowed because of a hand ball. Both teams began without key midfielders.

Santana left Falcao and Zico, both of whom had been struggling with injuries, on the bench. Spain was without Ramon Caldere, who had been hospitalized with salmonella and didn't dress for the game, and Rafael Gordillo, whose stomach ailments forced him out. France 1, Canada 0 Jean-Pi erre Papin, frustrated during the whole all game by the spectacular goalkeeping of Paul Dolan, put a header home in the 79th minute in the Group match in Leon, Mexico. The Canadians, making their World Cup debut against the European champions, stayed even behind the leaping, lunging saves of Dolan, who was substituting for regular goalie Tino Lettieri. Let-tieri lacked outdoor training after spending the year with the Minnesota Strikers of the Major Indoor Soccer League.

France broke through when Luis Fernandez's crossing pass found Yannick Stopyra to the left of the goal. His shot bounced into the goalmouth with Dolan unable to stop it, and Papin headed it in. From Chicago Tribune wires Brazil overcame a slow and nervous start Sunday to defeat Spain 1-0 in Guadalajara, Mexico, and begin its quest for a record fourth World Cup. After a poor first half, in which the Brazilians looked ordinary, the team came to life in the second period. The boos heard as the players left the field at halftime turned to cheers in the closing stages of the Group match.

Coach Tele Santana's starting lineup, old by modern standards, appeared better defensively than the 1982 team, but the offense could not compare with the teams that won titles in 1958, 1962 and 1970.

The finish of each half, where we are used to the drama building, too often expires like a long-distance runner out of breath. If you grew up on the two-minute drill, watching a soccer game exhaust itself is as exciting as watching celery droop. Soccer is hard enough to appreciate without shrinking it to the size of insects. You might as well put the game in an elevator as to put it on TV. Baseball has a similar problem, but at least baseball is familiar.

Soccer is forever foreign. Any sport in which the French are favored cannot be missed. 1 particularly enjoyed this exchange between the commentators employed to make the World Cup as compelling to us as it is, without comment, to the rest of the world. "How do you pronoufice the name of Junior?" Jones asked Paul Gardner. "Junior," Gardner said.

We await further insights. Continued from page 1 Jones' colleague Ricky Davis, "it would be a boring game." This is not excitement as we have come to know it in American televised sports. Soccer is a run-on sentence. It has no periods, only commas. The American audience has been educated to expect a starting and stopping point.

In baseball, nothing happens until the pitcher throws the ball. Even then, often nothing happens. But there is the anticipation of something. At least you know where to Took. Football guarantees a series of options about every 30 seconds.

The ball is snapped, bodies clash, someone runs with the ball or throws it or catches it. It has a simple neatness that makes it ideal for TV. You have all those mini-dramas right on schedule.

"We brought 7,500 liters of water with us, and have only eaten the hotel food," said a Danish press officer. "We also told the players not to put ice in drinks."
