At midnight last night, or
thereabouts, the eight members
of the Walker Cup team that
will represent the United States
at Muirfield on June 2 and 8,
climbed up the gang plank of
of the Aquitania, bound for

and hopes of millions of
American golf enthusiasts.

famous golf competition that it

pany.

youngest golfers ever to earn

they could tell many who are
twice their years what is wrong
with their game.

Walker team by chance. He is
not the type of in-and-outer
