Fanning says ho'd like to fo llow th e career route taken byfellow Manitoban Glen Hnatiuk who's currently playing on the Ben Hogan Tour. The approximato ly 30 tournaments per yea r on tho Hogan TOllr appeals to Fanniag who says his professional ti melines are nex ibl . "If, in two yem's, 1 don't fco l roady for il, I'm not goi ng to do it just because I said I would," says a refleclive F a nning. "r ve got to make !::l ure I'm ready to win some money and that means practi ci ng hard ... rt's time to stort show ing I'm worthy of attai ning profess ional status." It i. that sort ofviBion and determination that leads people to s uccess but golfwB s not t ho only prclfl:lSlSional sport thatb ckoned Fanning's athletic prowess. The National Hockoy Loogue's Va ncouver Canu cks drafted Fanning in 1987 a fter a successful goaltending career at Ohio State where he earn ed a bu ~ ino ss degree on It hockey/gulf scholarship. Graduating in 1990, he tested th o NHL waters but opted for a mOre ge ntl emanly purs uit.

Hi ~ concentration un ho ckey lurned his attention away from his golfgnrne ; a consequence Fanning hoped to rosolve as one of his goals for tho '91 senson . "One of my goals fol' last yea I' was to get bock to the level where I was as ajunior and, todo that, 1 jUl:lt needed to pracLice a lot more," Fa nning says. "Of course, I wanted to repeat {ttl Amate ur champion and J did that. l wanted to play in more events and 1 did that by going to North Da kota four times. You can procti ce as much OR you want but you've got to be playing competitively more often . That's what! did and I was fairly BucceBBfu l down there." This season, Fanning is slri ving to be a member of th o four~p l ayer team representing Canada in the World Amateur Championship he ld every two yea rs.

He chuckles wh ile noting his mother "was at every round of every lourna ment jn the provi nce last yeo I'. 1 think she enjoys it." Anoth er person who has been a significant infl uence on Fan ning is 0 champion himself, Manitoba Sports Hall of Famer, Al lan Boea. "When I won my fi rst Amateu r at 16 yea rs ofag~, he WIUI so excited, he gave me one ofhjs medals that they used to give instead of trophies," says Fan ning of his long-time friend. "He gave me one of his med. ls from 1940. Every yenr, going into the lust round, I put on his meda l fo r a little inspiration ." The affable Fann ing has made mnny fri end. in his career, among-them Gary Nicklaus whose golfing filther waS a boyhood favourite of Fanning'S. "Yeah , I've met Jack N icklau8 a few times," eays Fanning, with a laugh . "Actuall y, the clubs 1 use are a spare set of J ack's. Hi s son askod mo to try them out and, ifI liked th em, I co uld hovo th orn. Of' course, 1 did."

His rendy smile and easygoing nature have made hl.m a fan favou rite at tournaments around th e province, For Todd Fanning, the future seem. filled with the 80rt of challenges on which his competitive spirit thrives. "I've always prided myself on being a good putter," says 1991 Manitoba Amateur chllmplon, Todd Fanning. ' Sometimes whs t separated me from a few of the others was my ability to putt better thsn most." According to Fanning, proper head position is one of the more critical aspects of successful putting. "The key to putting Is to keep your eyes over top of the ball. Don 't get your head bahlnd It. If you were to drop a ball off the end of your nose, It should land on top of the ball you 're pun/ng.

G noway who has chaired both the 1990 and 1992 editions, believea th e 'celebrities' playa lorge role in the conference's success. "People in Manitoba wo nt to develop t.h eir go lf course and th eir golf game. Thoy'ro probably no different than golf enthusiasts anyw here in tho world ," says Genoway. "So, when there'. a chance to talk to people who are considored 'ex perts', people like to do tbat. Our rolo was not only to get those people to come to Manitoba but to do so at an affordable rate ao that anyone interested in golf could come to it. I think we've succooded with that.' The Forum also provides members of the Mani toba Ladies Golf Association with the opportunity to formally excha nge ideos with their male counterparts, a move Ganaway applauds. "The two gro ups havo boen somewhat separate all these years, like they are in curling," Gonoway says. "I think we're s lowly brealdng that barrier in Manitoba and it's about timo, as far as I'm concerned." Genoway SNY. the most aa tisfying part of his MGA involvement i. the opportunity to see some of his work in action , whothor the results are tangible or intangible. "Ono of tho most rewarding part. of my MGA work ia knowing 80me ofth. idoos I brought to the table are benefttting tb e peopl e who golf and develop golf in Manitoba," explains Genoway. '"Take the Golf Forum, 8S an example; tying that to th e co ncept of seoing it grow and help people is very satiafying. Boing ab lo to subsidiz' Ilnd promote a clinic in rural Manitoba and then two or three years down the road, seeing some you ngster developing in his game- just maybe that clinic or 80me sort of help wo provided played some 8mall role in that." Gonoway has Illao had some rather satisfying moments on tho links, winnjng the rural amateur crown in 1986, 1988 and 1991. This past year, he wos a member of Mnnitoba's North ... America Cup teum and h. hop s one day to make the Willingdon Cup team . Also included in Genoway's future plana is a continued involvement with th e Manitoba Golf Association's Board of Directors and furlher evidence ofWs d dication to t.he development of Manitoba gol f. "I thjnk ~e've made progress in the last fivc years a nd I still think we can go a lot farther," Genoway says of the MGA Board .
