missed a 30-foot putt by an inch,
taking a 5. Bobby also was short
with cut from the rough and took
three to get home and five to get
down.
Needs On Eighteenth

within bounds on the last nine holes.
For Bobby was not shooting to the
pin with his approaches and II re-
qIired uncommon putting skill to
counter balance this fact.
Beyond his s at the eighteenth,
however he exceeded par only on
the eleventh. Here he was short
with his approach and then missed
his chip shot to take 5. Then he
followed with conventional pars at
the next two. falling to get down a
15.foot putt that would have Melted
him birdie at the thirteenth.
His approach at the fourteenth left
him a 55.foot approach putt uphill
and he ran 1t up to within foot OF

putt hit the back OF the cup and fell
