Memoir of Jones Wets Five Hope On St Andrews Par Five
At a New York luncheon Francis Ouimet recalls Bobby Jones aiming to complete St Andrews without a five on his scorecard. Jones fought to avoid a five on the 17th road hole and finished five up at the halfway mark, illustrating supreme concentration amid famous golf lore. Revenue drops hit USGA tournaments by about 50 percent this year, with smaller open and amateur gates and reduced prices. Walker Cup matches against Britain are off for 1932, saving costs as England balks at costly overseas trips.
