This was standard at Wash

ment?"

Jack Fleck, who won more
money in the PGA Sponsors
Championship at Congressional
last fall than in any tournament
before he cashed in at the Ma
tio~R.l Open, did not make a
lasting impression at Congress
sional.
Fleck finished fast to pick up
$1,100 here, but nobody seems to
remember too much about him
Warner Gray. Witty Cox as
sistant, did recall that the new
National Open champion was
the only player to drive the 18th
green and sink his putt for an
eagle deuce. That helped him
to third round SO.
Haven't found a soul who saw
him play at Congressional and
picked him to win the next Ma
tional Open, although there are
q number who wish they had.
Among the observations made
at the Districts women's cham
pionship was that women more
and more are relying on caddies
to line up their puts.
The boys were lining up every
thing from go footers to 18
inchers. getting down and study
ing the line over the shoulder
of the player, and then giving
his judgment of how the ball
would break.
The players who rely on cad
dies to that extent say it's
helpful. The ones who don't
think so are extremely doubtful
of how much more the caddie
knows about the green than the
player. OF course, some of the
pros go to that extreme. You
pay your money and take your
choice.
