the amateurs.
These two frequently are part

Stewart on courses in the vicinity

couldn't hit the ball as far as
some of the huskier boys he played
with then. so he concentrated on
putting and the rest of the short
game.
Sellers putting is similar to that

Both will go boldly for the cup
from any place on the green. It's

There are many who will back
