GOLF PLAYERS BECOME TAGGED OUT
BEFORE TITLE PLAY BEGINS, SAYS RICE
Anderson and Gardiner, Finalists at Detroit Played
Less This Summer Than Any Other Contestants
in the Amateur Tournament
BY GRANTLAND RICE

There were two more thar interesting
features connected with the amateur golf
championship just concluded a. Detroit
two among many others. These Involve
the matter of preparation for such an
event-the question as 20 whether or not
most contenders don't play themselves
out before the title stun begins.
The two features we refer TO involve
Bob Gardner Of Chicago. and John An
derson, Of New York All through this
summer Gardner has been playing very
little golf. most Of it embracing sun
day round lie made no preparation for
the tournament, got 10 Detroit only one
day ahead, and in his first practice round,
which he played with Jerry Travers, was
at least or down.
Anderson played his last round Of golf
at Baltusro back in June Immediately
after that he took charge OF a boys camp
in the Maine woods, and had no oppor-
tunity to play a round from June TO
within a few days OF the championship
opening when he arrived in Detroit. For
nearly three months he had gone without
any golf at all.
In his first round over the Detroit
course Anderson took 30. Yet Anderson
and Gardner who have played less golf
this summer than any of the other con-
testants, went smashing on through the
field until they clashed In the Saturday
final.
This may be freak Of fate or it may
prove something. II it proves anything, 1t
Is that both came to the tournament
fresh and keen for the weeks outing and
that it is far better to reach a tourna-
ment in this frame of physical and mem
tai being than II is to overplay-as so
many do-and become faCged after the
start.
One of the main features of the golf
championship was the work of Sheriff.
sherman. No one had even figured him
with a chance i'm his first match against
Albert Seckel. Yet he continued to step
along until he upset the conqueror Of Oui-
met and reached the seInihnals-merely
by playing steady, consist, Mt golf without
any particular thrills.
The time has passed In American golf
when any one or two mGn, or even any
three or four men, can rule the field.
There are now 10 or 10 golfers who may
beat any of the champions at any time,
and as each season comes II is going to
he harder and harder to win a champion
ship.
"A year or so ago." said Jerry Travers
"you could always figure only one or
two men to beat you if you happened to
meet them in the draw. About one hard
match was all that / ever worried about
knowing that in the other matches
had only TO play steady golf to win. But
those days are gone. You can't loaf on
any match now, and this means that the
golfer who wins must start in fighting
for every hole from the first day.
ANY one of 10 or 12 men is liable at
any time to move around in a 72 or 73,
and you can't loaf any against any such
! chance. This means that to win a golfer
must be in fine physical condition to
stand the strain. The one who isn't will
never go through. for he can't stand the

good lead toward Pennantville, the MEM
bers of the Rooters' Club are planning to
celebrate properly the occasion.
