The best ball of the English players
was 73 for the forenoon round and 70

The individual scores were: Var

Guilford, 1919
At the conclusion of the first eight
cen holes the Britishers led by up.
Their advantage was the same when
twenty seven holes had been played
in the afternoon. With six holes to
play their lead had been cut to two
holes. But in the pinches they rallied
and at the thirty-fourth hole they
settled matters when Ouimet over
drove and Guilford was short on the
tee shots.
Ouimets exhibition was far from
his best. He seemed to lack the punch
and precision which has distinguished
his play in other matches. From
time to time he shot remarka Bile
woods off the tee only to develop a
tendency to inaccuracy in this same
department of the game. Ray never
appeared better.
