Guilford was stymied eleven
times during this match. 6suilford
said eleven times, though others
quoted the number as fourteen,
while one staunch Guilford rooter
remarked that the big Bostonian
never had shot on the green's
that was entirely free from q sty-
ME lie.
This remarkable championships
match stirred more comment about
the stymie, l dare say, than was
ever heard previously during o
championship. There were days &c
Broolkline when hate for the stynie
was at white heat, and no end OF
discussion as to. whether a player
styrnied so many times had really
a. fair chance.
Such luck would seem to be an
hard, to say the least, and not d
few Of the players took the position
at the time that the stynaie was not
good golf. However. we had IL,
regardless of what our personal
opinions about 1t may have been.
so there was nothing to do but
play it.
Il Is comparatively sfEnpIoA
matter for any player to play

sible stymie when putting, but 4

Sweetser played for stymies, but

that he did, since it had never
been heard Of for q man to give
his opponent 50 many stymieS In
one match.
In this it is not meant that
Sweetser is subject to criticism II
he did play for stymies, since he
had every right to try for them II
he wished. The remarkable thing
is that he could lay them as he did
| il he were really playing for them.
The styn1ie can be played for if
| the ball is putted deliberately for
an inside lie. That is. play 1t
so that if it fails to make the hole
it will have its chance to come to
rest between the hole and your
opponents ball.

When anything offers that
tempts the player, or which may
tempt him, to abandon the idea Of
sinking his own bah and interfering
with his opponent-at that point
the game ceases to be golf and be-
comes an irritation.
| Guilford deserves-and has won
a great place in golf history not
alone because of this one extraor-
binary match, but for the greater
reason that he took all those
/ stymies in manly fashion.
