ONLY ONE AUSTRALIAN IN THE SEMI-FINALS OF THE MEN'S SINGLES Rosewall And Hoad Eliminated
Wimbledon, June 29.
Australia, the world's leading team tennis nation, looked like dominating the Coronation Year Wimbledon, but only Mervyn Rose, their number 1, survived to reach the Semi-final.
He beat Art Larsen, former United States Champion, 6-3, 6-3, 16-14, but needed six match points in their third set to clinch the issue,
