Amateur Golf Needs Another Bobby Jones
By HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, Aug. 14—This is the day when 603 of them start firing all over the country in the ~ annual scramble for a starting place in the National Amateur Golf Championshig, and it would be nice if something sensational could happen this year to save what used to be a top-flight sports event from becoming ho-hum stuff, The best thing that could happen would be for another Bobby Jones to emerge from some obscure corner of the nation. To tell the truth, the amateur hasn't been any great shakes since Jones
the fence or striking out, Jones
delivered his grand slam of the British, and American Amateur and Open Tournaments and then, quite sensibly, retired. Nowadays you see him swinging a club only at the Masters Tournament in Augusta. Occasionally you see him at the Open, walking along with the rest of the gallery and watching the pros. When he left, most of the color and the glamour of the amateur left with him. It was “Jones against the field” in those days and, win or lose, the galleries ttirned out to see him. Like Babe Ruth, who put on a great show whether he was busting one over
had box office appeal. Millions who didn't know the difference between a stymie and a caddy knew who Bobby Jones was and what he had done. If vou don't think the amateur has gone down hill since then, walk up to any golfer and ask him to name the last flve amateur champions for you. It's six, two and even that he can’t do it, and
it's the same that you can’t do it.
Having just looked it up, I shall now flash my erudition and tell you that they were Richard D. Chapman, Marvin Ward, Willie Turnesa, Johnny Goodman and
Johnny Fischer.
One trouble with the amateur is that the pros have stolen the show. A dazzling array of pros have come up since Jones quit—Snead, Nelson, Hogan, Metz, Lloyd Mangrum and McSpaden. After watching those babies commit manslaughter and first and second degree murder on par, your average golf nut can't get too excited about the amateurs. The amateurs can't stand the hot pace. Occasionally one of them comes up with one good round in the open, but on those last hot, mad 18 holes on Saturday afterncon the simon-pure boys wilt and the cool, steel-nerved
pros are left on the battle field alone, Not since 1933, when Johnny Goodman won by one stroke
at North Shore, has an amateur taken the open. This year the tournament will be played at Omaha, practically in Goodman's back yard, and a victory by Johnny would be both popular and a good thing for the tournament, It would recall his sensational victory over Jones in another amateur tournament and would bring back a well-liked and familiar face to the pictures that show the winner holding a big cup and grinning.
But it still wouldn't convince
the golfing public that the average amateur has any business in there bucking the pros. Under the wise direction of Fred Corcoran, tour= nament manager of the P. G. A, countless tournaments have been opened up in the last few years, The chances for a pro to make money have increased, and the boys are working at it as hard as you work at your job. An amateur can't play golf once or twice a week and compete against men who have more natural ability, who devote endless hours to practice and who fight till the last putt is down.
