THE GAME,
There was a good following wh the players drove off from the first tee. Neither started very well. Stewart pulled and Dodwell found the bunker. The hole was won by Stewart in 6-6. The second hole was halved in 5, Dodwell getting into the long grass at the foot of the bank behind the green and failing to get out. The third hole showed how fiory the course was. Both men pitcbed bank behind, getting nasty shots to play on to the green and ran a little up the Dodwell ruined a two-foot putt, and a half in 4 was the result.
