Original Toronto Star caption: Scottsdale, Ariz. (AP) - Jim Nelford yesterday made a remarkable - some would say unbelievable - return to the U.S. Professional Golfers Association tour. The promising career of the 31-year-old Burnaby, B.C., native appeared over 17 months ago after a horrifying water skiing accident near his Phoenix home shattered the bones in his right arm in nine places and severed vital nerve endings.
