Why is Walter Hagen the most
colorful player in golfdom?
One only has to read the account
of his recent match with Abe
Mitchell, English golf star. to under
stand
In American circles Hagen al
ways has been known as the great
est money player in the game. His
ability to come from behind, demon
strated on many occasions, has
earned him that honor.
In his first meeting with Mitchell,
a half a dozen matches having been
scheduled. Hagen gave one OF the
most remarkable exhibitions OF golf
ever seen on any course.
If any golfer had had the temerity
to suggest that Walter Hagen could
spot Mitchll four mp in a nine-hole
match and then win. the chances are
that such an individual would have
been judged insane Immediately.
