Chick Evans Sees Jinx Break With 68 In Indiana Meet
Chicago golfer Chick Evans, returning from a nine year dip, carded a 68 at the first annual Midwest tourney in French Lick Ind to spark hopes of reclaiming his top status. Evans, national amateur champion in 1916 and 1920 and open champion in 1916, has long battled shakiness and missed later chances but now envisions a comeback akin to Francis Ouimet’s 1931 revival as he seeks to add to a storied record including Western open and amateur titles.
