Sports 'Nice and smooth' putt earns Robyn Doig the last available spot on the provincial golf team From Page 10 Robyn, however, sunk her putt to win the last spot on the provincial team. "I was nervous but I knew I could make the putt. I was trying tothink positive because I knew I'd make that shot before so I just thought, 'Nice and smooth' like I always do," she says. "It's been my goal for two years to get on the Ontario team when I started, doing better during the last couple of years in tournaments," she mii O ,s14�jc�F ,, -44 Country Property with Business Poems Thurs, Aug 8th, 6-7:30pm. 39896 Kip - pen Rd, Hensen.

Robyn, along with her mom Linda, got on an airplane for the first time in her life and flew to New Bruns- wick on Sunday to play against 150 junior girls from across Canada. Paul was expecting that as the first alternate to the Canadian Junior Boys' championships, he would like- ly get a call to fill in for one of the 150 competitors from across the country. who couldn't make it to Kitchener. "I was the 31st out of the top 30 who qualified so it someone pulls out, I'll be the first one in. And, I still have four more years in it so I'm very happy," he says. While boys ages 14 to 18 compete to qualify for the nationals, Paul says very few 14 and 15 -year-olds usually make it - only five juveniles (ages 14 and 15) made it this year. Paul also won the Midwestern Op- timist golf tournament in St._ Marys this year, earning a spot in the World Optimist golf tournament where 100 countries compete in West Palm Beach, Florida next July. Coming first also won him travel and accom- modations expenses. Paul will be competing in the 14 and 15 -year-old category in the four- day tournament on one of the golf courses used by the PGA Tour. "It's a pretty cool experience be- cause you get to see where you're rated. in the world," he says. Because Paul competed in the same international tournament at age 11, he says he has the advantage of some familiarity with the golf course. But, he adds that with golfers from around the world competing, there is a bit of a language barrier between players. Playing with golfers from Asia and Puerto Rico last time, Paul says he had to resort to a primitive sign language to communicate. "Maybe I'll just lay low this time and not have to talk to too many peo- ple," he laughs. The golfing siblings say they've been golfing, as they do most sum- mers, for at least an hour every day when they're not playing in tourna- ments. Coming from the family that owns the Seaforth Golf Club, Robyn and Paul say they've got plenty of en- couragement from all of their family members, including their grandpa Ken Doig, who also golfed on the On- tario team in national tournaments many years ago. "Mom takes us to tournaments all summer and Dad does most of our coaching. And, Grandma Doig is al- ways telling us how good we are and we love that," says Robyn. "That's our whole summer basi- cally. You have to organize your time well and don't have a lot of time to relax but I'd rather do that than mope around all aay," adds Paul.
