RANDLEMAN, N.C. - Lynda Petty, the wife of NASCAR Hall of
Famer Richard Petty, died Tuesday after battling cancer
for several years. She was 72. Petty Motorsports
spokesman Jeff Dennison said in a statement that Petty
was surrounded by her family when she died at her home in
Level Cross. He said she had been fighting cancer for the
past several years. Lynda Petty helped start the Racing
Wives Auxiliary, a benevolent fund for injured members of
the NASCAR community. The group was formed by the wives
of drivers, crews and sponsors. "Through the years, Lynda
became an integral part of the NASCAR landscape. We have
lost a true friend, who will be missed each and every
day," said NASCAR chairman and CEO Brian France. Besides
her husband, Lynda Petty is survived by son Kyle, two
daughters, 10 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
"It was no secret that she was the cornerstone of the
Petty family; a woman of humility and extraordinary
strength," said Austin Petty, Lynda and Richards grandson
and chief operating officer of Victory Junction, a camp
for children with chronic medical conditions or serious
illnesses. "While we mourn her death, we also celebrate
her life and the profound impact she had on those who
knew her," Austin Petty said. A private memorial service
is scheduled for Reverie Place in Randleman. No date or
time was given.

Val Sweeting could not hide the excitement of reaching
her first final at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts. The
Alberta skip made an open draw to the button on the final
stone of an extra end to defeat Manitobas Chelsea Carey
6-5 in the semifinal on Saturday night. Sweeting will
face defending champion Rachel Homans Canada squad in the
final on Sunday night. "Its huge," said Sweeting, who is
playing in her second Scotties. "To be one game away from
a dream come true like that, it feels really good." It
wont be easy. Homan is 12-0 in the tournament, including
a 10-5 win over Alberta on Tuesday in the round robin.
"Its going to be a good game -- close with lots of rocks
in play," said Sweeting. "Well try to get them drawing
and hope the angles are in our favour. Theyre really good
at the high, hard ones, so we have to watch out where our
rocks are." Alberta third Joanne Courtney said the key is
to keep Homans team from pulling out the three-or-four
point ends they have used to roll over most opponents in
the tournament. "You cant afford to miss too many against
them,"said Courtney. "Theyve scored a lot of big ends
this week, so we have to be careful when they have hammer
with what we leave around. "Theyre really good at weight.
Sometimes you think you put it in the right spot and they
make a triple or something." Courtney put her second shot
straight through the house in the extra end, but Carey
was unable to make her pay for the error. "I knew shed
want that one back, but the button was still open and, as
a skip, thats all you want," said Sweeting. Sweeting, who
finished fourth in the round-robin portion of the
tournament, got to the semifinal with an 8-7 victory
Saturday morning over Saskatchewans Stefanie Lawton.
Carey, who will play in the bronze medal game against
Lawton, was dismayed at a spotty performance. "Its
terrible, it sucks," she said, lamenting too many missed
shots. "There were a bunch throughout the game. "We
fought the inch a bit. We played a great game (Friday
against Homan) and didnt win, and played a not-great game
today and didnt win. Its just not our week, I guess."
Manitoba emerged from the first five ends with a 2-1
lead, but neither team looked sharp. After the break,
Sweeting hit for two in the sixth to take the lead, then
ggot another in the seventh when Careys draw to the
button ran long.dddddddddddd The next end, it was
Sweeting who went long on a draw and Carey was able to
score two. Then Sweeting was a tad heavy on a hit in a
bid for two and had to settle for one. She took a 5-4
lead, but gave Carey the hammer going into the 10th.
Carey left a draw short on her first rock, then drew for
one to send it to an extra end. In the third-versus
fourth game, Lawton left draws well short in the seventh
and eighth ends to allow Alberta to steal five points en
route to an 8-7 victory. The missed shots left her squad
down 8-3 with two ends to play. They closed the gap at
the end but the outcome was not in doubt. The
Saskatchewan skip looked devastated. "I had great draw
weight at the beginning of the game and I just seemed to
lose it after the sixth end," the Saskatoon resident
said. "Just two tough draws and I couldnt make it for the
girls and I feel not so good about that." Saskatchewan
looked to have taken control with a steal of one in the
fifth for a 3-1 lead, but things went south after the
break. Lawton missed a double takeout that gave Sweeting
an easy two to tie it in the sixth. Then Lawton left a
draw short to give Alberta a steal of two in the seventh
for its first lead of the game. A crisp Sweeting double
takeout in the eight left a crowd of Alberta stones in
the house. Lawton tried to draw into them but a groan
went up from the grandstands as she left it short again
for a steal of three. She rebounded with two in the ninth
and Sweetings rink played with fire in the 10th by
letting Saskatchewan put stones in the house. But a
Sweeting takeout with the last stone sealed the victory
despite Saskatchewans steal of two. "The ice was great,"
said Lawton. "It was a little keener and straighter but
nothing we couldnt adjust to. "It was just a matter of
making better shots." Now she hopes to salvage something
by taking third place. "Were going to come out and play
for that bronze medal because wed be very proud to win
that one," she said. It is Lawtons third Scotties after
appearances in 2005 and 2009, and all three times she
lost in the 3-versus-4 game. She finished third in round-
robin play at 8-3 but lost to Yukon (2-9) in her last
game Friday. Fourth-place Sweeting had lost 8-6 to Lawton
in the round robin.
