rough. His third shot landed ten feet
from the cup. His only chance to win
the match was to putt and havc the
hole, then capture another.
The Game Finish
His putt was true in alignment but
the rain soaked green retarded the
speed of tho ball and it stopped a few
inches from the cup. He sank the putt
for five, hoping against hope that
PIatt would miss two puts. but it
wasn't to be. The former champion
was doomed to defeat by one of the
gamest golfers that ever welded a
club.
Platt's approach putt was short but
a moment later he slid it with a swish
over the sodden turf and it dropped in
giving him the match after nerve
racking battle of many hours and
thirty eight holes.
Att"r Ouimet had congratulated Platt
he was surrounded by yost of fol
lowers. who could scarcely realize that
this youth. of whom the majority had
never heard before. had beaten one of
the worlds greatest golfers in one of
the worlds greatest matches.

he felt we'll and had no fever. After
the match he was badly run physically

but he was not i'll.

Ouimet drove first, long, low shot
that went into the rough on the right.
Platt calmy tocd up his ball and drove
it straight up the fairTay. but a triflc
shorter than Ouimet'S. The Boston

lost in the mist for few seconds. but
