Daily Sentinel Protesters chant as Trump visits Dayton By Zeke Miller and Jill Colvin Associated Press EL PASO, Texas — Aiming to play the traditional role of healer during national tragedy, President Donald Trump paid visits Wednesday to two cities reeling from mass shootings that left 31 dead and dozens more wounded. But his divisive words preceded him, large protests greeted him and biting political attacks soon followed. The president and ﬁrst lady Melania Trump ﬂew to El Paso late in the day after visiting the Dayton hospital where many of the victims of Sunday’s attack in that city were treated. The president was kept out of view of the reporters traveling with him, but White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham said the couple met with hospital staff and ﬁrst responders and spent time with wounded survivors and their families. Trump told them he was “with them,” she said. “Everybody received him very warmly. Everybody was very, very excited to see him.” But outside Miami Valley Hospital, at least 200 protesters gathered, blaming Trump’s incendiary rhetoric for inﬂaming political and racial tensions in the country and demanding action on gun control. Some said Trump was not welcome in their city. There were Trump supporters, as well. Emotions are still raw in the aftermath of the Mike Ullery | AIM Media Midwest President Trump, right, is welcomed by Congressman Mike Turner at the steps to Air Force One on Wednesday morning. early Sunday morning shooting rampage that left 10 dead, including the gunman, in the city’s popular Oregon entertainment district. Critics contend Trump’s own words have contributed to a combustible climate that has spawned violence in cities including El Paso, where another shooter killed 22 people over the weekend. And the vitriol continued Wednesday. Trump spent part of his ﬂight between Ohio and Texas airing his grievances on Twitter, berating Democratic lawmakers, a potential 2020 rival and the press. It was a remarkable split=screen appearance for TV viewers, with White House images of handshakes and selﬁes juxtaposed with angry tweets. Trump and the White House have forcefully disputed the idea that he bears some responsibility for the nation’s divisions. And Trump continued to do so as he left for the trip on Wednesday. “My critics are political people,” Trump said, noting the apparent political leanings of the shooter in the Dayton killings. He also defended his rhetoric on issues including immigration, claiming instead that he “brings people together.” Some 85% of U.S. adults believe the tone and nature of political debate has become more negative, with a majority saying Trump has changed things for the worse, according to recent Pew Research Center polling. And more than three quarters, 78%, say that elected ofﬁcials who use heated or aggressive language to talk about certain people or groups make violence against those people more likely. In Dayton, raw anger and pain were on display as protesters chanted “Ban those guns” and “Do something!” during Trump’s visit. Holding a sign that said “Not Welcome Here,” Lynnell Graham said she thinks Trump’s response to the shootings has been insincere. “To me he comes off as fake,” she said.

I was in the living room reading when someone came in with more than a little blood on his leg and a T-shirt held in place by industrial tape wrapped around his knee. “You’ve gotta take me to the hospital.” And the fun began, but I’ll spare you the details. He has about three or four weeks yet to go. When the surgeon at the local hospital wound clinic examined him more than Vivian two weeks after the incident, he Blevins remarked, “This is a two-season Contributing injury.” Summer and fall? columnist After I observed the doctor taking out many of the 40 some stitches and probing around in the deep wounds on the back of the injured man’s knee and watched as a nurse packed and bandaged the wound, the surgeon asked, “Can you do this?” My response was, “I can do anything I have to do.” Two minutes later I left the examining room and headed down the hallway to the restroom, hoping I could make it before I fainted. Earlier in the exam, I had chirped to a nurse, “I know about medical things because as a junior I worked in the school nurse’s ofﬁce for a year at Woodward High School in Toledo to earn credit in science toward one of the majors I was required to have to graduate.” What I did not say was that my tasks there were limited to pimples, sprains, and regular visits from female students complaining of menstrual cramps. Treatment for the latter was a glass of warm peppermint water, a hot-water bottle, and an hour or so on one of the cots in an adjacent room. I believed, and still do, that those girls were primarily interested in ditching class and having a nap after a late-night date. Back to the aftermath of the accident. The injured and I now visit the wound clinic every Friday, and a visiting nurse comes every other day to check up on him. The wound, nine inches across, has gone from looking like someone took an axe to the back of his knee, which even had hospital personnel coming to take a gander at it, to a modest two-hole affair with a BIG scar. I’ve learned more than I ever wanted to know about sterilization procedures, low-salt diets of 50 grams of protein a day, wet heat compresses, elevated legs, frequent naps (for both of us) and walking on egg shells. I’ve also heard stories from one of the visiting nurses of persons with wounds that don’t heal properly because the patients fail to follow instructions and even at times have cockroaches traversing over bandaging supplies that are supposed to be kept sterile. For weeks now on alternate days I pack and wrap the wounds. And then I install compression bandages from the patient’s foot to mid-thigh. By now you’re probably asking how this qualiﬁes as a column. Those of you out there who’ve tended to a person for months who needs TLC realize that as the caregiver you need a little TLC yourself. We all have limits. Schedule time for yourself. If you’re in the middle of something and a request comes that doesn’t have a time certain attached, tell the patient you will handle his/her need once you complete what you’re doing. Reintroduce those calming, breathing exercises you knew at one time, try mindfulness exercise or visualization techniques. Continue your exercise program, get your sleep, and eat a healthy diet. Reward yourself after a trying day by ordering something for yourself online or making a quick trip to the mall (I have three new dresses). My patient has sworn off ladders permanently, and readers need to be aware that the Center for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that more than 500,000 persons in the U.S. are treated for ladder–related injuries each year and 300 of those unfortunate souls die. “Work loss, medical, legal, liability, and pain and suffering” are listed at that site as expenses. I’m sure home caregivers are not listed in the estimated annual cost of $24 billion-plus. If, however, you must use ladders, the American Ladder Institute has free safety training that can be accessed at https://www.laddersafetytraining. orgTraining.

We try to eat right (I’m lying), we exercise (still lying), and go to the doctor regularly (when forced to) all in the quest to live just one more minute longer. Oddly enough, I hear from the prognosticators (I hope that’s clean) that all that healthy living extends life by about 6 months. Of course, I am not sure how any of those statistics are created, because if you die, how could anyone know that you might have lived longer had you taken another course? I can possibly understand that if you walked out into trafﬁc and were hit by a bus, but otherwise, it makes no sense to me. What I have come to believe is that 95 percent of statistics and ratios are completely made up. First, let me point out that I am all for living longer. I am not sure about living as long as Methuselah lived, but the longer the better. However, let’s explore some of the downsides to the aging process.

A video of the event was subsequently shared on the Ohio Cops Facebook page and has since garnered over 50,000 views. “I’ve had some really good buddies and we’d sit down and just come up with song ideas,” said Clagg, 25, of Gallipolis. “One of my good buddies is getting ready to go into law enforcement and we had just sat down and were having a simple conversation. He said he was excited to go to work and we came to the topic of things that he would endure, see and really do.” Clagg said he and his friend spoke about the differences in how law enforcement was perceived in various media stories or on the internet versus the reality of the job. “I’m always thinking of songs to write about and music is my second favorite thing next to what I’m doing (professionally),” said Clagg. “You want to write songs that reach out to people. That’s how the song came about. It was about showing people a side of law enforcement they don’t always see. Just simple things, like leaving behind your family every day. That was like my go-to line. It doesn’t have to be big (when being inﬂuenced by an idea for music). Maybe it’s something simple that people don’t see. On my initial social media post, I thought if this turns four or ﬁve people who are against us to understand us, that would be awesome. We’re no different than any other human. Just because we’re wearing uniforms and wear a badge and we’re out to do a job, sometimes people feel there’s a dividing line with the public. I wanted to show people we get up and put our pants on like anybody else.” The main chorus of the song says, “Some nights are harder than others for a stay-at-home mom, a little girl and her brother, hoping Daddy walks back in that door. An alarm set for 7 a.m., to be at the door when he walks in and know they get another day with him. He stands tall and walks a line for me and you. Just a man in blue.” The song goes on to tell the story of a father who leaves his family nightly and his family waits for him to return home, unsure of what will happen that day. It ends with the mother hearing the father’s home radio saying “shots ﬁred Baker Road and 27 dispatch.” The song ﬁnishes “Some nights are harder than others for a stay-athome mom, a little girl and her brother because Daddy isn’t walking through that door. But Daddy’s ﬂying high with the Lord. He stands tall and walks the line for me and you, a man in blue.” “As we look around the nation, we see too often our fellow law enforcement ofﬁcers being slain in the line of duty,” said Champlin. “Upon hearing the song that Nick wrote and performed, it was apparent that this song epitomizes the feelings a law enforcement family feels every time their loved one walks out the door to go to work. I am so glad that Nick chose to share his message with our friends and families in our community at the fair. Additionally, I’m glad to see that the message is spreading across the nation and affecting the hearts of everyone who listens to it.” Clagg received his ﬁrst law enforcement commission in April 2014 but did not start working as an ofﬁcer until July the same year. He has served in law enforcement a little over ﬁve years and with the Gallia Sheriff’s Ofﬁce four years. He’s been playing guitar since he was 18 and has been playing consistently in shows for over four years. The musician says he taught himself to play by watching videos on the internet. Clagg was also recognized with 93.7 the Dawg Kindred Communications First Responder of the Week. Clagg said since the song’s posting online he has been contacted by several individuals across the country talking about how the song “touched them.” “That’s what it’s about,” said Clagg. “You just hope to reach somebody emotionally (with music).” Hair From page 1 Students should arrive with freshly washed and dried hair, and after getting their free haircuts, will be sent home with a bag of personal care items such as shampoo, conditioner, brushes and combs, toothbrushes, ﬂoss, toothpaste and other grooming supplies along with treats.

Fields, who transferred from Georgia last winter, has never started a college game. COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Justin Fields knows all about heat. He grew up in Georgia. But the pressure cooker in which the celebrated prep quarterback now ﬁnds himself is about to get turned up. The pressure is always crushing on anyone who starts at quarterback for Ohio State. But Fields, who transferred from Georgia last winter, is expected to pick up where record-breaking Heisman Trophy candidate and ﬁrstround NFL draft pick Dwayne Haskins Jr. left off. Fields , a 20-year-old sophomore, has never started a college game. He saw only limited playing time in his freshman season, mostly in mop-up duty behind Jake Fromm. He comes to Ohio State with great expectations and great hype. He was one of the highest-rated high school prospects at any position in 2018. He is said to have nearly the arm that Haskins does but with the speed and elusiveness his predecessor lacks. New Ohio State coach Ryan Day is the ﬁrst to note that Fields must still earn the starting job. But that’s really just a formality. “Physically, he checks all the boxes — running, athleticism, size, power, throwing ability, arm strength, accuracy, intelligence,” Day said. “He has all those things. Now it’s just a matter in August of putting on the ﬁeld and seeing what kind of product we have. “But in order to learn, you have to fail,” Day continued. “Unfortunately, we don’t have the luxury of failing a lot in practice and spending a few years as an understudy. Some of those failures are going to happen in a game, and there’s going to be a lot of deep breaths.” In the months after spring practice, Fields put in his work. He threw with his receivers nearly every day. “Right when you come into a new place you can’t just come in and just act like you’re a leader,” he said. “You have to kind of get used to the guys and build relationships with them so they trust you. Then See OSU | 7 McDonald sees positive changes in the Steelers LATROBE, Pa. (AP) — Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald noticed a positive change in the organization following last year’s turbulent season. McDonald also noticed a difference in quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and the chemistry surrounding the team as a whole after the Steelers missed the playoffs for the ﬁrst time since 2013. Both changes have him excited for 2019. “I think it’s just an open dialogue and communication, not necessarily with (Roethlisberger), but with all guys,” McDonald said. “It’s not even worth waking up and going through the day mad or angry about a situation or about guys, so you put all of that into open air and let it go. It’s impossible to explain, but it feels very open, free and fun.” Two-time All-Pro running back Le’Veon Bell declined to sign his $14.5 million franchise tender last year and opted to sit out his ﬁnal season with the Steelers. Wide receiver Antonio Brown, a four-time AllPro, was benched by coach Mike Tomlin before a must-win Week 17 home game against Cincinnati. Then he spent the ﬁrst two months of the offseason doing what he could to force his way out of town before he was ultimately traded to Oakland. McDonald said he never considered Brown a See STEELERS | 7 Ex-dean with oversight of Larry Nassar gets 1 year LANSING, Mich. (AP) — A former Michigan State University dean with oversight of nowimprisoned sports doctor Larry Nassar was ordered Wednesday to serve up to a year in jail after being convicted of neglect of duty and misconduct in ofﬁce that stemmed from claims he sexually harassed students. William Strampel learned his fate during a hearing in a Lansing courtroom, nearly two months after the College of Osteopathic Medicine’s exdean was convicted of those charges . He was acquitted of the more serious criminal sexual conduct charge. Strampel, 71, faced up to ﬁve years in prison on the felony misconduct conviction, resulting from accusations he used his public ofﬁce to sexually harass, demean and proposition students who met with him to discuss academic issues. He also was convicted of willfully neglecting a duty to monitor Nassar after protocols were put in place requiring that a third person be present in the exam room for sensitive procedures and limiting skin-to-skin contact — misdemeanors punishable by up to a year in prison. Defense attorney John Dakmak recommended probation, citing concerns about his client’s health and service to the school, state and nation. Dakmak told Ingham County Circuit Judge Joyce Draganchuk that Strampel was tough on students but rooted “for the underdog,” and his time leading the medical school included increasing admission of women and their faculty participation. Strampel spoke only brieﬂy, saying he did not want to drag out the proceedings. “The jury has spoken and we’re not hiding from that,” Dakmak said. “We understand he has been found guilty. To answer for that doesn’t mean we See NASSAR | 7 Eric Christian Smith | AP file Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb (24) scores on a two-yard touchdown run in December against the Houston Texans in Houston. Despite an embarrassment of offensive weapons, including Baker Mayfield and Odell Beckham Jr., Browns coach Freddie Kitchens made it clear his team won’t be “pass happy” this season. Not as long as he’s got Chubb, who ran for 996 yards as a rookie and could be on the verge of becoming one of the NFL’s top backs. Browns RB Chubb poised for breakout season BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Nick Chubb skipped the parties in college. Not his style. He was reserved and quiet at Georgia, keeping to himself or working out in the Bulldogs’ weight room. The soft-spoken kid from historic Chubbtown was courteous and driven off the ﬁeld, tough and powerful on it. Browns coach Freddie Kitchens had friends who coached Chubb and who say he hasn’t changed. “He’s the same guy as he was when he showed up as a freshman,” Kitchens said. “He is just bigger, faster and stronger now.” And becoming one of the NFL’s best backs. After rushing for 996 yards as a rookie, Chubb could be on the verge of a breakout season with the high-ﬂying Browns, whose offense won’t simply consist of quarterback Baker Mayﬁeld dropping back and riﬂing passes to either Odell Beckham Jr. or Jarvis Landry. Not with Chubb around. “I will just go ahead and put it bluntly to you,” Kitchens said. “We will not be a pass-happy team. We will do what we need to do to win the game or attempt to win the game. We are going to run the football.” Chubb will carry the load. A second-round pick in 2018, the 23-year-old Chubb started slowly last season. He played behind Carlos Hyde and was given the ball just 16 times in his ﬁrst six games before getting his ﬁrst start in Week 7 and rushing for 80 yards on 18 tries against Tennessee. But after coach Hue Jackson was ﬁred and Kitchens got promoted from running backs coach to offensive coordinator, Chubb became the Browns’ workhorse. Giddy-up. Chubb posted three 100-yard games in the ﬁnal seven weeks and became the ﬁrst Browns player since 1975 to score a rushing TD in ﬁve straight games. He ripped off a club-record 92-yard scoring run in a win over Atlanta, his gallop made more famous by Browns radio announcer Jim Donovan’s “ChubbaWubba-Hub” call. Chubb, who overcame a serious left knee injury at Georgia, was in line to eclipse 1,000 yards and actually broke the milestone in the season ﬁnale at Baltimore only to be tackled for a loss on his ﬁnal attempt and ﬁnish 4 yards short. While some players would be devastated by the near-miss, Chubb took it in stride. “Let me tell you something about Nick Chubb, and it sums it up for him,” Kitchens said. “Not a word was mentioned about it, not a word. I even apologized to him, but not a word was mentioned about going up and under 1,000 after he had 1,000. That tells you what Nick Chubb is, what he is here for and how he approaches the game, and what the game is about for him. “It is about winning. It is about winning a championship.” Chubb enters this season as Cleveland’s primary back, a role he may wind up sharing later in the year once Kareem Hunt serves his eightgame suspension. The duo of Chubb and Hunt, the league’s rushing champion as a rookie in 2017 for Kansas City, could be tops in the league. “It’s going to be scary,” Chubb said. Hunt says his teammate is special. “Chubb’s a beast,” he said. “He’s a freak.” Kitchens won’t have any qualms about the Browns pounding opponents with handoffs to Chubb, who averaged 5.2 yards per attempt in 2018. The idea is to win. If that means Chubb has to carry it 30 times, so be it. “I’m just doing what I gotta do,” he said. “You hand me the ball, our O-line does a great job blocking for me. If we want to pass the ball, maybe to block for them and catch some routes, too. Whatever the team needs.” That unselﬁshness is one of the many characteristics Kitchens admires in Chubb. “Nick is everything we want in a football player from the standpoint of how he approaches the game, how he approaches practice, how he approaches every time he has the ball in his hands, every time he is pass protecting and every time he is running routes,” he said. “Nick works his tail off every time he crosses the white line.” Chubb could soon work himself into the company of Ezekiel Elliott, Todd Gurley and the league’s elite backs. But that’s not one of his goals. “I’m just going to be the best Nick I can be,” he said. NOTES: Kitchens hasn’t decided which starters will play — or for how long — in Thursday’s exhibition opener against Washington. … Cleveland’s front defensive four were sidelined for the second day in a row. … The Browns practiced in pads for the ninth consecutive day. … In the kicking battle, Greg Joseph made 3 of 5 ﬁeld-goal attempts during the kicking period and ended practice making a 45-yarder. �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Reds get win over Angels, 8-4 OSU Tate Martell had been waiting his turn behind Haskins but transferred to Miami after Fields From page 6 arrived.

They accused him of staring at their breasts. Women who worked as model patients during exams also testiﬁed about unprofessional and sexual comments. Investigators said Strampel’s work computer contained photos of nude and semi-nude young women with Michigan State logo piercings or clothing. Student Leah Jackson told the court Wednesday that Strampel made sexually suggestive remarks during their ﬁrst meeting. “Why was he so conﬁdent he could get away with it?” she said. “It makes me wonder how many other people he had done this to. He was supposed to protect us and he chose to betray us.” Strampel was the ﬁrst person charged after Michigan’s attorney general launched an investigation in 2017 into how Michigan State handled complaints against Nassar, who pleaded guilty to molesting patients and possessing child pornography. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a statement she appreciated the court’s “commitment to ensuring justice in this case was served.” “While Mr. Strampel’s sentence will never give back the years of pain and suffering his victims had to endure, the persistence of these courageous survivors made certain that he could no longer hide behind the title he once held to escape the reach of justice,” she said. After Strampel’s sentencing, Draganchuk declined to dismiss a felony charge against former Michigan State gymnastics coach Kathie Klages. She was charged with lying to investigators about her knowledge of abuse allegations against Nassar. Klages’ attorneys sought to have the charge dropped, claiming the state attorney general’s ofﬁce failed to present sufﬁcient evidence against her. Klages, who resigned in 2017 after she was suspended for defending Nassar over the years, has denied allegations that former gymnast Larissa Boyce told her that Nassar had abused her in 1997, when Boyce was 16. CINCINNATI (AP) — Nearly a month on the injured list left Tucker Barnhart feeling blue. A red-hot return has him back on track. Barnhart hit two of Cincinnati’s ﬁve home runs, Aristides Aquino included one among his three hits and came up with a clutch catch as the Reds beat the Los Angeles Angels 8-4 on Tuesday night to complete a sweep of their two-game interleague series. Jose Iglesias hit a two-run homer and Eugenio Suarez added a solo shot, helping Cincinnati overcome home runs by Justin Upton and Mike Trout and send the Angels to their sixth consecutive loss, matching their seasonworst losing streak. Barnhart, who spent 22 games on the IL, hit solo shots into the right ﬁeld seats in the sixth and eighth innings for his ﬁrst career multihomer game, giving him eight homers this season and three in the last three games. He is hitting .393 (11-for-28) with at least one hit in seven of the nine games he’s played in since coming off the injured list on July 26. “I was in a bad place mentally,” said the Reds catcher, sidelined with a strained right oblique. “I’m in a good place mentally. I’m having fun again. Team’s playing well. I look for good pitches to hit. There were a couple balls out over the plate in spots that I was looking for. I just try to help the team any way I can.” Cincinnati hit ﬁve home runs in a game for the fourth time this season and ﬁrst since May 4 against San Francisco. Anthony DeSclafani (7-6) allowed ﬁve hits and four runs with three BROADCAST 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WVPB) 13 (WOWK) walks and ﬁve strikeouts in 5 1-3 innings to collect the win, the Reds’ third straight and fourth in ﬁve games. “We’re playing good baseball,” said bench coach Freddie Benavides, who managed the last six games during David Bell’s suspension. “Everybody’s contributing — six different guys with RBIs. Down 3-0, we battled and came back to tie it. We’re conﬁdent in the starting rotation. Really good back end of the bullpen.” Amir Garrett had three strikeouts in 1 2-3 innings. Michael Lorenzen, Robert Stephenson and Lucas Sims each recorded an out in an eighth inning delayed 54 minutes by rain. Aquino went deep into right-center ﬁeld to make a backhand catch of pinch-hitter Kole Calhoun’s bases-loaded two-out bid for extra bases in the eighth. “I thought it had a chance,” Angels manager Brad Ausmus said. “We spent everything we had in that inning trying to get back into it.” Upton hit a three-run homer in the ﬁrst. The Reds answered against Jose Suarez with Eugenio Suarez’s solo homer and Iglesias’s gametying two-run drive, both on changeups. “In my last outing, I had a better feel for it, and I was throwing it more for strikes,” Suarez said about the pitch. Aquino started Cincinnati’s three-run ﬁfth with a shot to center ﬁeld for his second homer since being called up from Triple-A Louisville on Thursday. DeSclafani and Nick Senzel added RBI singles for a 6-3 lead. Suarez (2-3) set season highs by giving up six runs and 10 hits with one walk and three strikeouts in ﬁve innings. The Angels rookie left-hander is winless in seven starts since his last win on June 15. Rare appearance Late-inning lineup changes left Albert Pujols playing third base for the ﬁrst time since 2015.

These aren’t the Spurs. These are not typical times, either. USA Basketball will ﬁnalize its World Cup team on Aug. 17 — meaning training camp, which started Monday, lasts less than two weeks. That also means there’s a real urgency in this camp in Las Vegas, since Popovich and his staff won’t have much time to decide who will ﬁll the 12 spots on the roster that will head to China in search of a third consecutive World Cup title. “We’re looking for guys who are competitive, who can handle the discipline it’s going to take to get this done, play a team game and basically fall in love with each other and have that empathy so that they feel responsible to each other and depend upon each other,” Popovich said. “That obviously means you don’t need the greatest amount of talent in the world. “Too little talent is not a good thing, but we don’t have that problem.” The biggest U.S. names — LeBron James, Kawhi Leonard, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, James Harden and so on — aren’t playing World Cup. There are four current All-NBA players expected in the tournament, and three of them will be aiming to beat the U.S. Nikola Jokic will lead gold-medal hopeful Serbia, NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo is playing for Greece, and Rudy Gobert is playing for France. The only American All-NBA guy in the mix is Kemba Walker, who knows team building over the next few days is vital. “On the court is pretty easy. I think we’ll get that,” Walker said. “Off the court is where we need to ﬁgure out, where we need to spend more time and communicate more, just have fun with each other. Like Pop said, just love each other. That’s the way it has to be, because it has to translate to on-the-court if we want to do something special with this team.” Even though the U.S. roster lacks the biggest stars, there’s already a clear sense of competition. Popovich brought in the select team — the younger NBA players who were invited to Las Vegas this week to push the national-teamers and potentially compete for their jobs — into practice Tuesday, and players said the intensity of play immediately ramped skyward. There’s no grace period for players to ease into camp, not with stakes this high. “They came to play,” Miami center Bam Adebayo said. “I give them respect.” It’s already clear that Popovich, entering his ﬁrst tournament as the U.S. coach, doesn’t want the 12 best players. He wants the 12 best-ﬁtting ones. Daily Sentinel A summer of stress for Woodland JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) — Gary Woodland made sure plans were in place for him to leave tournaments before he even arrived. And when he did show up, just the sight of ofﬁcials in a golf cart made him nervous. Most of the time, they were on their way to administer a ruling. Woodland always assumed they were coming to tell him his wife had gone into labor. It was like that for the last six weeks. So the smile that never left him Tuesday at Liberty National Golf Club had nothing to do with the $15 million prize at stake as the FedEx Cup playoffs begin. It was all about his twin daughters Maddox and Lennox born Thursday, making his best year in golf the greatest year of his life. “I feel 100 pounds lighter,” Woodland said as he walked off the course during a weather delay in a practice round Tuesday for The Northern Trust. “Obviously, I had a huge win and that was great. But it’s been stressful every week because every cart I see … ‘Are they coming to get me? Is Gabby going into labor?’ The last month has been stressful for both of us.” That huge win was the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, which was ﬁlled with plenty of tense moments. Woodland handled those with ease, no small task with twotime defending champion Brooks Koepka chasing him all the way to the ﬁnish line. He drilled a 3-wood Carolyn Kaster | AP file Gary Woodland poses with the trophy after winning the U.S. Open Championship in June in Pebble Beach, Calif. Woodland says he couldn’t truly enjoy winning the Open until his wife gave birth to twin girls last week. from 263 yards onto the 14th green to set up a pivotal birdie, and then turned to another high-risk shot by using a 64-degree wedge to pitch the ball off one end of the green to a pin some 90 feet away on No. 17, a shot that will take its place in U.S. Open lore. That still didn’t equip him for six weeks of nerves that followed. “At Pebble, I felt in control. The last month, I’ve had no control,” Woodland said. “That was the hardest part for Gabby and I, the uncertainty.” It was at the Dell Match Play two years ago when Woodland learned that one of the twins his wife Gabby was carrying had died. Their son, Jax, was born at 30 weeks and spent six weeks in the neonatal intensive care unit. The following April, she had a miscarriage. So imagine the sur- prise — and trepidation — when they learned in January that she was pregnant with twins. “One, they told us she couldn’t get pregnant,” Woodland said. “Two, they didn’t think there was any chance she’d make it to 36 weeks. That was almost as much a miracle as her getting pregnant.” Her last trip was to the PGA Championship at Bethpage, where she was sick and never made it out to the golf course. She stayed up late at home in Florida to watch Woodland hold off Koepka at Pebble Beach, and she saw that rare burst of emotion when he made a 30-foot birdie putt on the 18th to win by three. With the silver trophy at his side that evening, Woodland thought about the next two months and said life was about to get real. The U.S. Open, his greatest achievement in golf, didn’t feel real at all. Woodland went home to Florida, and soon thereafter brought his family to Kansas, where Jax had been born. He went to Topeka, Kansas, so his hometown could celebrate his U.S. Open victory with a block party. Gabby was in the hospital that day and couldn’t make it. “It was awesome to win,” Woodland said, “but I haven’t really enjoyed it.” That was a time to wait and to hope. Woodland anticipated the twins being born prematurely and having to spend a month or two in the neonatal intensive care. He tried to keep playing, and golf never felt so hard. He missed the cut in Detroit. He missed the cut in the British Open. There was no cut at the FedEx St. Jude Invitational, where Woodland failed to break par in any round and tied for 55th.
