GOLF CROWD CONTROL
What a marvellous match that must have been between Cyril Tolley and Robby Jones at St. Andrews. The American
won.
but not until an extra hole had been played, so that the amateur champion defended his title proud- ly.
But it is not of the match that I want to write so much as the conditions, for they typified what is happening in big golf to-day. At any other sport the spectators are more or less herded so that they do not, except on very rare occasions, impinge on the playing pitch.
But on a golf, course they are free to roam about anywhere, and if they do not observe the boun daries which are set they become a nuisance. The most memorable example of such interference was at Prestwick when Macdonald Smith, with a commanding lead
after three rounds, lost the lite practically through the specta-
tora.
Interference.
At St. Andrews, in the Tolley- Jones match, there was plenty of excuse for excitement, but at times the bail was stopped by spectators, and the supporters of either man could point to Inci. dents which hindered their favourite.
An
When a vast. crowd assembled to watch a match, it helps the players by lining the way to the hole and thereby making "alley" into which it is easier tr play. With the fairway lined and a crowd at the back of the green there is an intimacy about th hole which, I think, makes it easier to play, and so long as the player is not addicted to nerves he should be able to play at his best.
But it is a different matter when the spectators get in the line of light or, because they are so densely packed, impede a too strongly hit ball which, uninter- rupted, would roll over the green. Some method must be devised for preventing this, for it is obvious that a player can take advantage of, the barrier behind the green and alam his ball right up.
No Use Appealing.
But how to stop it? It seems to be no use appealing to what is called the sporting Instincts the crowd, so that the remedial measure must be a compulsory

and thus had to concede a walk-over. This has the effect of giving the V.R.C. the championship In this division, as their position is now such that even if they lose their re-played match with the Fukien Club on Monday it would not affect the League table.
