The 1903 United North and South amateur championship at Pinehurst drew nearly sixty entries from major clubs and leading amateurs, with perfect weather and superb course conditions. Beckwith-Ward reached the championship finals in a fitting climax, as the tournament proved a brilliant success and augurs well for future years.
The Trophy Winners includes T Sterling Beckwith of Cleveland Golf Club as Champion and best gross score in qualifiers. John M Warp of Fox Hills Club Staten Island is runner up. Roy S Durstint of Lawrenceville Club is consolation and best net score in qualifiers. Frances Powters runner up in women’s championship and best net score in qualifiers. Mrs M D Patterson of Englewood Club is women’s champion and best gross score in qualifiers. Special events include putting and driving contests. Crowds of about five hundred watched Beckwith face Ward in the final, a highlight of the tournament.
The women’s championship mirrored the men’s in depth and entries with tight, thrilling rounds. In the qualifier Mrs. M. D. Paterson won the gross score cup with 101 and Miss Powers the net cup with 96, just one stroke behind Paterson. The Powers Bradbury clash stood out as a tour feature, turning from four down at the turn to even by the seventeenth and finishing with a one-stroke win on the twentieth. The immense gallery roared as Paterson defeated Powers in the final, five up and four to play.
