Diegel Has Complaint.
r EO DIEGEL protests professional
golfers waste too much time in
getting around course. His out
burst came during the Los Angeles open
when some of the players were obliged
to finish in the dark and others had to
complete their rounds the following day.
Think of it. Three hours and forty
minutes spent in playing ID holes
snorted Diegel. I'VE are all to blame
and it's getting to be a disgrace. A
fellow should be able to crawl around
golf course on his hands and knees IN
hours, yet some Of the pros add 40
minutes to that time"
why do players take so much time?
Look at them! They study this and
line up that. They squat down behind
their ball: they walk to the other side
of the green. That's a lot of bunk.
Why can't a player line up the grain
of the green when his partner Is putt
ing and not go through the entire
rigamarole on every hole? We will
have to stop this slow playing In cham
pionships. It's not golf. It's not even
