WALTER HAGEN IS
Open CHAMPION
Goes One Stroke Better
Than Evans, the Western
Amateur Champion.

Chicago. Aug, e3.-walter c. Hagen,
% years old. native professional of
Rochester, N. Y, won the open golf
championship Of America Friday with
finals over the Midlothian club course,
just one stroke better than Charles
Evans, Jr., western amateur champion.
Evans outplayed the whole field in a
spectacular finish that electrified the
long gallery, which had followed
Francis Ouimet, last years champion,
until he failed, taking 29s for the ~
holes.
Hagen played excellent golf. but not
so good by seven strokes as Evans, who
made two rounds of II and 70, despite
several missed puts, for 141, the best
double round made during the tourna-
ment. Par for the 6421 yard course
is 70.
Hagen Thursday made a record of
So for the course by good long work,
aided by spectacular putting. He took
"a in the afternoon, leading the field
at the end of the first day with 142.
Hagen fell off a trifle Friday, taking
rs for the first round and 70 for the
second. The best of his game came on
the last nine holes, where he made 80,
two under par.
Evans played off his game because
of a wrenched right ankle, which SEEM
ed to bother his putting more than his
long work and irons.
Barely Qualified.
The western amateur title holder
barely qualified with 1853. Hagen took
1862 in the elimination round, while
Ouimet. the title holder, playing evenly,
took 14S.
Evans improved slightly in the first
two rounds OF the finals, but his score
of 7674150 was five strokes behind
Ouimet, the Massachusetts amateur
having made 6S-75-145, and eight
strokes worse than Hagen, who led the
scores for the first SO holes with 6S-
74-142.
Ouimet fell off slightly, taking To-
1918, while Hagen slumped to 1878
14s. Evans made the first round in II,
driving long and approaching in spec
tacular manner. He missed puts with
considerable regularity, however, but
kept gaining on Hagen until he was
within one stroke at the end of the So
holes. He could not overhaul the
young professional. who had sprung
into fame for the first time, for the
Rochester man scored a splendid 35 on
the last nine, holing putt after putt
Evans, hot on the heels of Hagen, was
surrounded by 1000 persons, shouting
to the western champion to win.
