into the center of another pine thicket,
and upon arriving at the haunted spot
found his ball practically unplayable
up against a tall and stately pine.
Hagen first tried to use g putter in
order to move the ball few feet from
the big tree. But. knowing that Jock
was already six strokes to the good, he
finally took out his niblick, turned ii
over for left handed shot, as Kirk
wood had done, and whaled away. The
ball scared up above the trees and car
ried $50 yards near the edge of the
green, where he got his 4.
Without these two sensational strokes
both Hagen and Kirkwood might easily
have blown themselves out Of the tour
nament on these two holes.
To see the conditions under which
both strokes were played they would
have been declared impossible, even if
one could have taken his normal right
handed stance. But with the stance
changed and the face Of the club turned
over the results were beyond belief.
There were other notable shots made,
notably by Freddie Mcleod and George
Kerrigan, but nothing quite approach
ing these two astounding achievements.
In spite Of which, the irrepressible

Each one announced at the end of the
round that the shot played was far
away the greatest single stroke either
had ever made in long career of fancy
stuff
And, strangely enough, the two
miracle efforts were almost alike.
Kirkwood started first. From the
first hole the Australian sliced deep
into the woods. When he got to the
bali he found the white missile nesting
close against a giant pine in the mid
die of young forest, where 1t was I'M
possible to stand right-handed and even
see the ball, Kirkwood not being cross
eyed The ball was lying heavily.
Kirkwood had one chance and that was
to play left handed shot. He took out
his right handed mashie and with a
left-handed stance turned the blade
over. From this position he whaled
into the ball, carried the cluster OF
pines and carried full $50 yards to
the edge of the green.
