The Battle for the British Crown.
Within a short while now Jock
Hutchinson. Walter Hagen and myself
will be starting out again to make an
other battle for the main British golf
ing crown. the British open cham
pionship. to be played over the famous
Sandwich links.
In a field of this sort it is impossi-
bic to pick any winner in advance, but
il is al least interesting to try to dope
out the situation and see where the
main strength lies.
In the first place, it is my belief
that Sandwich is one of the finest
courses in the world for such a tes..

variety of strokes, pitch and run

BILE.
Something About Sandwich.
Going out. Sandwich has three one
shot holes. varying in length from IT'S
TO 235 yards. These are among the
holes that are highly important in
medal play. where the difference be-
tween a 3 and a 5 may be only a yard
or two to the right or left.
The first short hole. 235 yards long.
is known as the Sahara, where one
must get a long, straight carry. The
other two are from 165 to IT'S yards,
calling for firm, accurate iron play.
The battle begins with a fine two
shot hole, the second being a good iron
or a long brassie. depending on the
wind.
There is no rest, then, on the. out
ward stretch and when one comes to
the ninth he faces the famous Cor
sets" so called from the boarded bun
kers that stretch across the fairway
for the first and second shots.
The sixteenth is the only short hole,
coming in. calling for an iron to Ii
well-trapped green.
The last six holes bring on a heart
breaking finish. They are all fine two
shooters. where the ball must be
placed and we'll hit, to leave any
chance for a good shot home. At these
holes long. straight shots will count
with rolling grounds to be worked
over. and both distance and direction
needed to reach the green in 2. The
seventeenth and eighteenth are around
440 yards. fine finishing holes.
The first nine is more upon the
tricky side. with fine chances for

was here that MacFarlane made his

calls for hard. accurate hitting. with
few chances to pick up any mistakes
made earlier in the round. 1t is a
course which calls for varied golf, u

that don't make things any easier.
