IT HE statement that Queen Mary has
decided 70 take up golf seriously while
the royal family is at Balmoral dur

in golf!nS circles. She is not quite a novice
at the game. though Princess Mary Is
credited with saying that II her mother
could only keep straight she would drive
very long ball.
There is much speculation regarding the
player who will be selected 10 teach the
Queen. Ben Sayers has had most expert

famous professional who taught the Duke
and Duchess OF Connaught and Princes
Patricia, all of whom proved apt pupils.

Although King George seldom or never

Both the Prince OF Wales and Prince
Albert are good golfers, and very keen
