Two former champions. another

four tonight as a field Of As fin

starting at noon tomorrow.
The quartet was comprised of

All of this leaves out the one

he said. I guess it would have
been between 73 and IS which just
isn't anything to get excited
about. This course is better than
it has been in years and it's wide
open for somebody really to step
ont and do something"
Two big galleries will form for
the first round tomorrow. One will
be in the wake Of Bob Jones and
will be composed largely Of Geor-
gians who would adore him If he
chose a bathing suit as a costume
and an assortment of la crosse
bats as his weapons.
The other will follow the lately

swung back to make my second shot, some
thing behind me exploded. "Br-r-r-r!" it
ratified like a machine gun. A woman had
started her movie camera grinding. My head
flew up, and flubbed the stroke. After all my
good luck was this my finish - licked by
foolish break?

Sure all you have to do is to get hot."
It's easy after it's all over But during
the three days of that tournament l lost
seventeen pounds! From worrying!
How did l manage to play the best golf
of my life during those three days when it
counted most? That s a tough question. Luck?
That had a lot to do with it, of course; but it
was more than that. learned hard lesson

barely scrambled in among four tied for the
last qualifying place.
So before starting at Baltusrol took
whole week S rest - and went into the tour
nament fresh. got 73, So and 73 on the first
three rounds - not bad. But just before that
last round started something happened which
might have defeated me right there if my
nerw hadn't been in good shape. While |
was eating lunch there was sudden burst Of
cheering in the distance. A minute later some
one came hurrying in.
This tournament over, he called. Harry
Cooper just got an eagle on the first. He's
away out in front No one can catch him."
Only eighteen more holes to play - and
Harry going like a cyclone! The shock might
have put me out of the running. But that
weeks rest helped me to realize that one hole
isn't the tournament, that might give par
little beating myself. Which did.
That's the way to get hot" for the Open
Tournament according to the way figure
How does Gene Sarazen explain it? His
final round in the 1882 National Open was
one of the greatest exhibitions of golf that
famous tournament has ever seen. Going into
the last round, Gene needed 68 to tie Phil
Perkins and Bobby Cruickshank, who we're
deadlocked for the lead And a 68 is record
breaking golf. Gene did better than that; he
covered the last eighteen holes in IS, and won
by two strokes. asked him how he managed
to play such great golf at just the right time.
Because got weeks rest just before the
tournament started - coming home from win
ming the British Open, was his answer.
But whatever the right combination is, |
hope I'm lucky enough to strike it again next
Thursday when l defend my title at the
Oakland Hill Country Club. And if do. |
hope have Gene Sarazen as partner in the
last round.

fairway The second went home without
glancing to right or left, and sank my putt
for par 1t seemed too easy.
It was the same on the eleventh hole. The
ball behaved as if it we're hypnotized, and
got my par. The twelfth was even better, for

We had to wait at the thirteenth

Cooper was slowing up all the matches
behind him. Waiting takes twice as
