Spirlea keeps her cool, aces Seles at humid U.S. Open quarterfinals
Romanian wins close 3-set match
By Hal Bock The Associated Press
NEW YORK — As each point went by, Monica Seles' shoulders seemed to droop a bit more. Reality was setting in. Irina Spirlea was not going away anytime soon. In fact, she was not going away at all.
Spirlea was like a hitting machine yesterday, and almost everything Seles tried seemed to come back across the net. Finally, the No. 11 seed from Romania prevailed in the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open, 6-7 (5-7), 7-6 (10-8), 6-3.
Seles, a two-time Open champion and a finalist in New York the last two years, seemed drained by the thick humidity and the determined Spirlea, who became the tournament's first semifinalist

by the Spirlea's tenacity
Seles said she was surprised
By the spirit's tenacity,
"She was better on key points,"
Seles said. "She went for her shots. I
made a couple of easy, unforced
errors and that was frustrating."
Spirla forced the first set to a tie breaker and had Seles down before losing the last four points. Down a set, the 23-year-old seemed undisturbed. The second set also went to a tiebreaker and Seles pushed it to match point at 6-5. Spirla escaped that jam and won 10-8.
It was then that the energy and resolve seemed to seep out of Seles.
"I had the match," she said. "I felt it slipping on of my hands."
Spirlea then broke Seles in the next game and never gave her a chance to come back.
Spirlea's strategy was simple.
"You see what's working and what's not," she said. "I had no time to think about it.
In the final set, Seles made her last move. She had Spirlea cornered in the second game, down 0-40 and facing triple break point. Spirlea won the next five points, finishing with
an ace to save the game and her service.
"It was just frustrating," Seles said. "I had a chance to win the second set."
"She just played better," Seles said. "She hit some big shots. She had nothing to lose going into the match. But give her credit, she played some great tennis."
It was an expensive victory, though.
Team captain Seve Ballesteros
"I said if I reached the semifinals, I would give them a present," she said. "Now, I have to buy something for them."
Spirilla said she had made a bet with her coach and manager.
Ryder Cup team ousts golfer because of injury
The Associated Press
LONDON — Miguel Angel Martin was thrown off of Europe's Ryder Cup team yesterday after refusing to play 18 holes of golf to prove that his surgically-repaired wrist had recovered enough to allow him to compete later this month.
Martin, who earned the final automatic spot on the team, hinted he might legally challenge the move to replace him with Jose Maria Olazabal.
"I don't want to withdraw," Martin said. "This is my spot, and I am going to be there if I can."
now is free to make Nick Faldo and Jesper Parnevik his two wild card choices. This gives Ballesteros essentially three captain's picks for the price of two.
Martin, a 35-year-old Spaniard, has not played since the British Open in July and underwent surgery on Aug. 5.
Martin's doctors said that he could not even begin chipping balls until later this week.
"Following close consultation between the Ryder Cup Committee and Severiano Ballesteros, it is announced today by the Ryder Cup Committee that Miguel Angel Martin has been informed that he will be replaced in the European team
by the 11th qualifie d player, which is Jose Maria Olazabal," European Team representative Mitchell Platts said.
Ballesteros delayed selection of his two captain's choices until after Martin played a round of golf to prove h
Ballesteros: Will make two captain's choices.
I got to prove he was healthy.
Martin refused to play because he
said it would delay his recovery.
"There's no way I am going to be fit by Wednesday, and I think that's silly," Martin said. "But I think I have to be fit on September 26, not September 3."
Platts and Ken Schofield, European PGA Tour executive director, said they thought the tour had the right to make the move.
"The reality is that this is a team," Schofield said. "The Ryder Cup Committee has numerous obligations, including those to the captain and the team."
They said Martin's inability to play had proven that he was not physically ready for the competition that begins Sept. 26 at Valderra in Spain.
