GETTING TOUGHER
Tourney Scores Are Going
Lower Each Year; Texan
Has Won 81, $50

BROWNSVILLE, Ga, Feb. 90
(R-Ben Hogan, top money-Winner
of the winter golf circuit and a
favorite to win the sixth annual
$4,000 Thomasville open Saturday
and Sunday, believes scores are
going down.
They're going lower every year,
he observed in the locker room
of the Glen Arven club, and added
that within the next ten years itll
take 260 to win
Hogan, playing out of w h t e
Plains, N. Y, says he primes his
own game on pre-tournament
estimate of the probable winning
score. And it's paid dividends. He
hasn't won a tournament this Win
ter, but he hasn't been out of the
money in 80 consecutive starts and
leads in cash won with S4,150.
"a few years back 28t was good
enough to win most tournaments"
said Hogan. Nov it's in the 27O's,
and they're still going down."
Johnny Revolta, winner of the
San Francisco open, chimed in.
ITS coming" he said. I'm the
next two or three years you'll see
them breaking go for 18 holes.
Maybe not in the National open
for while, but it's coming
Hogan, who shot a sensational
62 in the Oakland open tournament,
says his big worry is putting.
Il used to see the ball going in
the cup before I putted, put no
more" he said. ''Now l look at
it and see it going like this" and
ne illustrated sweeping h k
away from the cup.
Hogan three-putted twice in New
orleans, but managed to get most
OF them down in two to finish with
a 27, one stroke behind Henry
Picard OF Hershey. Pa, who won
top money.
A drizzie kept some of the pros
indoors today, but number toured
