Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
MERION CRICKET CLUB, Ardmore, Pa., Sept. 20. WHEN you consider that in thirty-one holes of golf j Thursday Bobby Jones had three sixes then you will realize that ! Bobby was not at his best. Jones : beat Fay Coleman, a promising I golfer from the state of California, i He beat him six and five, but he j was still far from the top of his : game. Any time Jones has three j sixes on a card you can safely say ! he played bad golf. a a a I Along with conceded putts and all that I he had 76 on his morning round, but It | might just as well have been an eighty. He did better in the afternoon where he was one over fours going out and even fours | on the four holes of the homeward Journey. (The match ended on the thirteenth | green.) I James was playing poor golf and we i tried to find an explanation for it. Emmet French, who witnessed the Thursday matches, furnished one. a a a “TN any tournament that stretches 1 over six days of play you will discover that all the entries are playing badly on Thursday,” said French. It was the history of the Professional Golfers Association championship recently, and it has been the history of every tournament that I can recall. a a a “Thursday is the inbetween day. It comes between the Qualifying rounds and the first round of match play. In this case it came after the first two rounds of match play—the eighteen hole rounds. The boys, strained to the limit, relaxed and the result was some tall scoring.”
