Mark Hayes, who won The Players Championsh­ip among his three PGA Tour titles and was the first player to shoot 63 in the British Open, has died. He was 69.

Hayes died Monday in Edmond, brother Larry Hayes said. He had early onset Alzheimer’s Disease.

Hayes won the fourth edition of The Players when it was held at tough, windy Sawgrass Country Club. He birdied the last hole for an even-par 72 and a two-shot victory over Mike McCullough. Hayes won at 1-over 289.

Known for his bucket hat, the Oak Tree Gang member who starred at Oklahoma State won twice in 1976 at the Byron Nelson Golf Classic and the Pensacola Open. Along with winning The Players the following year, he shot 63 at Turnberry in the 1977 British Open.

Hayes was inducted into the Oklahoma Golf Hall of Fame last year. Hayes was a two-time AllAmerica­n at Oklahoma State and won the 1972 Sunnehanna Amateur. Cup victory in 1971.

Robinson was the first CFL player to score 1,000 points. He had a franchise-record 50 career intercepti­ons and was a threetime CFL West all-star at defensive back.

Robinson was enshrined in the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 1998 and the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame in 2009.

Gary Beach, a Broadway and TV veteran whose portrayal of a truly terrible theatre director in Mel Brooks’ monster hit “The Producers” won him a Tony Award in 2001, has died, according to his agent, Steven Unger. He was 70.

Unger said Beach died Tuesday at his home in Palm Springs, California. No cause was given.

Beach’s other Broadway roles included Lumiere in “Beauty and the Beast” and Albin in the 2004 revival of “La Cage aux Folles,” both of which earned him Tony nomination­s.

“The Producers” opened in 2001 and starred Nathan Lane as Max and Matthew Broderick as Leo, and featured Cady Huffman as Ulla and Roger Bart as Carmen Ghia.

Beach played the self-absorbed and beyond-flamboyant director who gets to go on as Hitler and leads the cast in “Springtime For Hitler,” the show’s most famous number. He reprised the role in the 2005 film.

Born in Alexandria, Virginia, Beach at age 11 saw the original road tour of “The Music Man,” starring Forrest Tucker, at Washington’s National Theatre and was hooked on musical theatre.

“I always wanted to be a performer, but it never occurred to me to be a television performer or a movie actor,” Beach told The Associated Press in 2001. “To me, it was always Broadway.”

Beach started college at Old In this Dec. 12, 2005 file photo, cast member Gary Beach arrives at the world premiere of the theatrical version of the musical “The Producers,” in Los Angeles.

Dominion in Norfolk, Virginia, as a political science major but read a magazine article about the North Carolina School of the Arts, where “show business goes to school” — and found his true calling.

He did over 1,000 performanc­es in New York and on the road of three musicals: “Annie,” ”Les Miserables“and ”Beauty and Beast,“and over 800 performanc­es in ”1776,“the show that got him to Broadway.

He survived flops — “The Mooney Shapiro Songbook,” a one-performanc­e bomb in 1981 — and moments of intense gladness, like the comedy “Legends”

by “Chorus Line” author James Kirkwood starring two real-life theatre legends, Mary Martin and Carol Channing.

“The first day of rehearsal in Los Angeles, there I was, sitting between Peter Pan and Dolly Levi and trying to pretend there was absolutely nothing wrong with this picture,” he recalled with a laugh.

After nearly 20 years in New York, Beach moved to Los Angeles. “I fell in love with the idea of having a car like an adult,” he said. There, he acted in such shows as “The John Larroquett­e Show,” “Murder, She Wrote,” and “Will & Grace.”
