the $350,000 tournament by
three strokes. ©

‘The Merry

day three strokes back of
tournament leader Tom
Watton, finished the 72-hole

championship witha score of

Abbey's often treacherous
7,059-yard layout. © ‘

Trevino Hintahed three
strokes in front of playing
partner Ben Crenshaw.
Watson, who led the. tour-
nament Friday and Saturday
and was heavily favored to
add the $63,000 winning
purse to his season's total of
more than $350,000, faded to
third with a closing round of
78 — seven over par,

The victory pushed
Trevino's winnings this
season to $175,117, He won

previous Canadian Opens in
Wil, at Richelleu Valley in
Montreal, and 1977 when the
Open was firat played here.

‘| didn't seore well

Defending champion Bruce

Bob Gilder. Gilder : took
fourth place alone at 286, one
stroke in front of Lietzke,

Twitty and David Graham, .

"hop Canadian was Jim
Nelford with a closing-round
7aand a four-day total of 288
— four over par. The 23-year-
old Brigham Young’ star
from Burnaby, B.C., took
élghth-place money.

It was the best showing by
a@ Canadian ip this tour-
nament since George
Knudson of Toronto tied for
sixth in the 1972 cham-
pionship at Cherry Hill Golf
Club In Ridgeway, Ont.

-Nelford added $10,950 to
his season's winnings to give
him $36,187 this year.

Trevino, whose career -

winnings now are $2,024,563,
said he didn’t start as if he
was going to win.
- “But I got a lot of con-
fidence when I managed to
par the first two holes. I got a
ot more confidence, though,
when I saw-Tom -(Watson)
got that gix on the third
hole,”

Wataon, who went into the
round three strokes in front

money
of Trevine and four in front
of Australlan Jack Newton,

who set a course record 64 In

Thursday’s opening round,
was heavily favored to hold
his lead in the gusty winds
that blow across the Glen
Abbey course, ‘

But after his triple bogey
on No.. 3, the season's top
money winner on the’ tour
never did get his game back
together and finlshed his

round with six more bogeys -[ .

and just two birdies. .

His third-place share of the
purse money, $23,800, gave
him a season’s total of
$387,624 — barely $12,000
short of becoming the first
golfer onthe PGA tour to win
$400,000 in a. single year.

Crenshaw was delighted

that his closing 71, playing in
a group with Trevino and
Curtis Strange, was good
enough for Second-place
prize money,

"Thad a poor start today
(bogeys on the first and four
holes) but I just tried to play
par golf after that. Actually I
was twounder the reat of the
way.”

The only other Canadian of
the 23 entered to survive the
halfway cut was Gar
Hamilton of Toronto, He
finished with a 77 and his 290
was good for $816.
