JUDGEMENTS; Winners and losers of the last seven days
WINNERS
Ian Baker-Finch
Welcome back to the former Open golf champion, who has endured a slump of truly epic proportions. This week, he managed - just - to survive his first cut for 17 months in a tournament in Sydney.
Leicester City
supporters
Who were able to give full vent to their feelings about their former manager, Mark McGhee, when they beat his new club, Wolves, 3-2 in midweek.
Seve Ballesteros
Who has already proved a winning Ryder Cup captain, bending the committee to his way of thinking about playing as well as skippering if he feels like it.
Bas Zuiderent
The 18-year-old Dutch schoolboy who blasted the best bowlers England has to offer during a high-quality half-century in the cricket World Cup.
LOSERS
Alec Stewart
Whose ability to get himself out in silly ways plumbed new depths yesterday when he was run out without even running his bat in.
Watford fans
Who are being asked to believe that a management pairing of Graham Taylor and Luther Blissett is a "dream team".
Tim Flowers
Who found that goalkeeping can leave you more open to ridicule than any other sporting profession with Stan Collymore's bibbly-bobbly goal against him on Saturday
Andre Agassi
Who failed to regain the world No 1 spot when he lost to Pete Sampras in the final of a tournament at the end of last week, and then promptly lost in straight sets to Luke Jensen, the world No 462, a couple of days later.
