1t was great putt, all right, but
one played by Walter in the 1928
p. G. A. tournament at Pelham was
even greater to my mind. 1t came
on the thirty-sixth hole of the final
match with Gene Sarazen.
Hagen not only had to try to sink
30-foot putt to win the hole, but,
failing to hole his ball, he had to
leave Sarazen a stymie.
Sarazen had come to the eighteenth
hole / up. He only needed-a half to
win the title. Both he and Hagen
made the 2S0-yard drives, which car
| ried them past the flag.
Each lay on the right side of the
green toward it's rear, Hagen 80 feet
| from the cup, Sarazen 35 feet away.
| They must putt in the same. general
direction.
| Gene played first, his bold try slip
ping 3 feet past the hole Hagen
took advantage of this tactical error.
He made sure that IL he missed his
30footer, he wouldn't be short. He
didn't hole out. but he laid Gene an
almost impossible stymie.
Sarazen. after one good look, picked
up his ball, taking a and conceding
the hole, and pushed on to the first
tee for the extra hole. The victory
which Hagen had delayed on the
home green came to Gene on the sec
ond extra hole.

teams in the Ladies' District League.
Their latest victims were the Area :

first of a series in which the writer

When this series is concluded, he
will consider the amateurs similarly.
In the early stages of the last Pro
fessional Golfers Association meet

This championship will be settled
on the green's.
This was equivalent to saying that
Hagen expected to win, for Sir Wal
ter knows he can output anybody.
The vote in this poll found diver
sity of opinion as to the best player
in many other departments of play,
but every professional consulted
agreed that Hagen is the greatest of
putters.
Only one man was considered as
