THE IRISH TIMES Saturday, September 2 , 2017 Sports 9 R2 AmericaatLarge Ian ORiordan Hardworkbrings Waterfordwithinreach ofLiamMacCarthyCup T he quickest route from St Annes in Cappoquin back to Villierstown is to turn right at the school gate, head down along the Blackwater and on through Dromona, a straight run of exactly 412 miles. hen John Treacy was 16-years-old and starting back for his Leaving Cert, he would turn left at the school gate, head towards Drumroe, through Kilclogher, down by Aglish and then back into Villierstown that way, a twisting hilly run of exactly 11 miles. Treacy ran that loop home five days a week, without fail. Rain or shine, mist or snow. No one asked him, or told him. He figured it out for himself and the advantages were obvious: his twin sister Liz, one of the 20 girls and five boys in his class, would take his schoolbag home on the bus, which took just as long anyway; and every one of those 11 miles was money in the bank. Im going to be a world-class runner, he thought to himself one day, never once counting those miles but simply feeling and feeding off them. Within four years Treacy was World Champion, his impossibly thin 20-year-old frame lording Bellahouston Park in Glasgow in what is still considered one of the toughest of cross country races. And the rest is Waterford sporting history. Now imagine what Treacy could have done on the hurling field had he not been lost to athletics. Thats not a moot point. Growing up in Waterford in the 1970s, its what every youngster played, and Treacy was no different. There was a match in Lismore one Saturday morning and they threw him in at corner back, knowing full well what his opposite number would think: he wasnt long changing his mind. Relevanttoday Not long after that his older brother Ray took him aside and said hes probably better suited to distance running. That Treacy then decided to run home from school is as relevant today as it was then because for all the research and advancement in that broad spectrum known as sports science, one thing remains certain: talent is nothing without hard work. The same could be said about another Waterford sporting talent, born exactly one year earlier, in Curraghduff, about 312 miles outside Carrick-on-Suir. Seán Kelly finished school at 13, was preparing for a life of hard work on the family farm, when his brother Joe introduced him to cycling. Within three years Kelly was junior champion of Ireland, still young enough to defend that title for a further two years. Soon he began training with senior rider Tony Ryan in Carrick-on-Suir, whod punish his young protégé on long and severe spins around the Comeragh Mountains, after which an exhausted Kelly would tell him he had to milk the cows as soon as he got home. Ryan would often wonder to himself how far Kelly could be pushed before he would cry no more. But each day he returned for more training. Still talent and hard work only took both men so far. One of the last tests of greatness is rising above adversity. In 1983, half-crippled with a back injury and trailed off in his heat of the 10,000m at the World Championships in Helsinki, Treacy faced adversity eye-to-eye. He needed out of his comfort zone, so moved his wife and young daughter back to America and started over. Within a year he was an Olympic marathon silver medallist, talent and hard work rarely combining as sweetly as on that warm Los Angeles evening. This is not some gentle nostalgia fest but a neat reflection of what this Water- Talent and hard work only took John Treacy and Seán Kelly so far. One of the last tests of greatness is rising above adversity ford hurling team have done in reaching Sundays All-Ireland final. There is nothing more common in sport than wasted talent, and while Waterford hurling teams of the past had no fear of hard work, something else happened this year to bring them back within hands reach of a first All-Ireland title in 58 years. Setthemapart Dan Shanahan, their 2007 hurler of the year, spoke about this in the build-up: now a selector alongside manager Derek McGrath, he was asked about players like Austin Gleeson and Michael Brick Walsh, what set them apart especially given theyre a near generation apart, Gleeson just turned 22, Walsh now 34. SSE Airtricity League Premier Division And with that Shanahan pointed directly at talent and hard work: that Gleeson has everything, left and right, unbelievable skills, the perfect attitude on and off the field; Walsh too, the first fella on the field, the last fella off it, as mentally strong as he is physically, helped in no small part by his younger years working on the family farm in Stradbally. The hard work stood out though. How every night at training, Gleeson and Walsh, along with Mikey Kearney, are the last three to finish, lining up a shot from where the sideline meets the endline, and not stopping until all three have curved the sliotar over the bar. Sometimes it takes 20 minutes but they always get it done and finish up on a high. The success of the Dublin footballers continues to reflect this, how for all their spread of talent and resources, perhaps they just work harder than everyone else. John Leonard started his book on the premise he could never make training ahead of Stephen Cluxton, and Jack McCaffrey, once that dashing winger on the Belvedere Junior Cup rugby team, looks to me as if hes still the hardest working footballer in the country. And that moot point about athletes being lost to football and hurling, or that the talent just isnt there anymore, would be completely lost on any 16-year-old still willing to run 11 miles home from school every day. Golf Round-up Johnsoninformas McIlroyfour-putts frominside12feet Rory McIlroy suffered the ignominy of four-putting from inside 12 feet in running up a double-bogey five on the par three 11th hole in the opening round of his defence of the Dell Technologies championship at TPC Boston in Massachusetts, an incident which provided a microcosm of a disappointing season. The 28-year-old Northern Irishmans putter has been symptomatic of an inconsistent, injury-disrupted season and his play of the 11th taking four putts from 11 feet six inches proved utterly frustrating as he slipped off the pace. Instead, it was world number one and FedEx Cup leader Dustin Johnson, winner of last weeks Northern Trust tournament, who set the clubhouse mark with a first round five-under-par 66 that confirmed his form in carding an eagle, five birdies and two bogeys.

The decision of the Shamrock Rovers board to parachute a 31-year-old into the most high-profile job in Irish football began to look like their latest mistake when they Rovers were humbled 5-0 by Cork City in the FAI Cup quarter-final. Bad enough was suffering such humiliation at their Tallaght base but causing much of their own downfall rankled more. Bradleys tactic of adopting a three-man defence backfired as they trailed by three goals with just a half-hour gone. It was a mistake he would later confess publicly to and, in a game engulfed by managerial-speak, maybe it was his refreshing honesty which con- vinced the club to upgrade his temporary status to full-time boss for this season. This term hasnt been without its disappointments either Rovers have lost 11 league games but this weekend they occupy an automatic European qualification place in the table with a winnable FAI Cup quarter-final to come on Friday. They also have an EA Sports Cup final against Dundalk the following week. In contrast to 12 months ago, securing his first league win of the season against Cork was attributable to a degree in how Bradley picked and set up his team.

The relegation threatened home side could count a missed penalty and hitting an upright as the closest they could get to breaking their duck.

Dundalk McMillan (2), Gannon, Benson, Connolly, Stewart St Patricks 6 0 Dundalk turned on the style against St Patricks Athletic at Oriel Park, ruthlessly smashing six without reply past Liam Buckleys 10 men. It looked like the visitors would go in level at the interval, but two David McMillan goals in first-half injury time ended the game as a contest. There was controversy attached to his first, a 46thminute penalty awarded after referee Jim McKell decided that the striker had been upended by Lee Desmond. Pats were left fuming by the decision, and Ian Bermingham was sent off for protesting in the aftermath. Before they had gathered breath, Dundalk had landed the killer blow, McMillan meeting Michael Duffys corner to bury his 15th goal of the season past debutant Lukasz Skowron in the fifth minute of added time. The Polish goalkeeper made his entrance in the eighth minute of the game, replacing the injured Barry Murphy, and he was given plenty to do, getting down low to his right to make a smart save in the 39th minute to stop Michael Duffy. McMillan then saw a goalbound flick cleared off the line by Desmond. Rockedbylategoals The visitors did have chances, most notably when Graham Kelly curled a lovely right-footed effort over the top of Gary Rogers crossbar with 21 minutes played, and it looked like Pats had done enough to go in scoreless, but they were rocked by two goals in the five additional minutes at the end of the half. Kelly should have pulled the Saints back into it just two min- utes after the restart but he watched his 20-yard effort bend just wide of the upright. It was a case of keeping the score down after that as Dundalk put the foot on the accelerator and Sean Gannon broke inside from the right and guided a cool finish past Skowron to make it 3-0 with 40 minutes still to play. McMillan should have claimed his hat-trick in the 57th minute but he missed the target from a great position before departing to a heros reception shortly later. Substitute Robbie Benson tapped home on the hour mark after great work by Duffy in the build-up and another replacement, Thomas Stewart, hit number six late on.

Trailing to Paddy Kavanaghs first-half opener, Galways powered their way back into the match in the second half to level on 72 minutes. A Bohemians appeal for a handball fell on deaf ears before Gavan Holohan whipped over a cross from the right for Cunningham to head home with literally his first touch. Cunningham should then have won it for Galway on 86 minutes but blazed over the bar from Conor Murrays cross. A minute later, Bohs goalkeeper Shane Supple made the save of the night from Hol- ohans drive from distance. Poor defending had gifted Bohemians the lead 16 minutes in. Galway captain Stephen Folans weak clearance from Keith Wards cross sat up invitingly for Kavanagh who scored with a well-placed header. Galway soon settled, coming right into the game with Eoin McCormack and Rory Hale off target with efforts midway through the half. Holohan then swapped passes with Alex Byrne to send his chip wide. Frantic defending was needed to keep Bohs out early in the second half. Fuad Sule broke on the counter to put Kavanagh away on the right with the poor cross cut out by David Cawley as Ward waited.

Perfectsix-iron The eagle came on the 18th, his ninth hole, where he hit a 220 yards approach to four feet behind the flag It was a perfect six-iron for me and rolled in the putt. I finally feel like Im swinging the club how I was, when I was playing really well at the beginning of the year. Ive got a lot of control over it. I feel like I can control my golf ball very well, which is what youve got to do in these conditions, said Johnson, who won three times earlier in the season before suffering a back injury when falling down steps of a stairway in his rented house in Augusta prior to pulling out of the Masters. In seeking to follow up on last weeks win in New York, Johnson said: When you win, youre playing well. So it gives you a lot of confidence. For me, that was one thing that was probably lacking a little bit the last few months is just the confidence. Johnson held a one stroke clubhouse lead over Kyle Stanley and Marc Leishman who opened with 67s- with Tony Finau also on four-under through 13 holes of his round. McIlroy had been two-under after six holes, before dropping a shot on the Par 5 seventh after a wild drive, and then suffering that dreadful double bogey on the 11th to fall back to one-over on his round through 14 holes. CzechMasters On the European Tour, the Czech Masters was disrupted by bad weather which caused a suspension of play during the second round. Englands Lee Slattery with just one top-10 so far this season shot a second round 65 for seven-under-par 137 to set the clubhouse target. Waterfords Gary Hurley was set to miss the cut after a second round 76 for five-over 149, while Darren Clarke the only other Irish player in the field managed just three holes of his second round before the weather suspension.
