= OMETHING that must be fairly
close to a record for paucity of
puts on regulation go'f course
has just been set at Congress
tional by W. c. Me-, one O; the lead
ing golfers of tie GLIB. Mo-le set what
must be an a!l-ttr,e record fer gra-s
greens whcn h u-cd only eight puts
on the first nine hc,e5. In al he had
- one-putt greens and a total of %
puts for the round.
On one hole of the first nine he
chlpped into the cup using no puts
and on each of the other holes he used
but single putt. Coming home his
accuracy around the cuo fel cff but he
still was able to get around in only %
puts.
This is the best mark recorded by any
amateur of Congressional and is only
four above what S2niy Arn,oIr claims
Is the worlds reco-d for rI5t.nr. Some
years ago mnlv Fc"5 q ia-,~us S-2t-
tish professional, and one of the greet
putters of all time. used only 10 puts
for round of golf on grass green's.
Such accuracy is fairly common on sand
greens like those at Pinehurst, where
~ and 23-putt rodnds come every once
IN while, but on grass greens the put
ting average runs higher than on sand.
