A.A. Lopes Wins Senior Championship At Country Club
(By "Birdio")
THE RAINS CAME—and let us thank whom we must for the brief but fairly solid showers that foll on golf courses during the past week. The fairways were quite unrecognisable in the frosh groen colour they had put on. The Country Club course at Sheungshiu lost its resilience and its parched appearance, and for the first timo in many moons the sand greens played as though of turf.
The great match of the week-end past was the final of the Country Club Championship, in which A. A. Lopes beat E. Sarlick 3 and 1, over 36 holes.
Lopes finished the first 18
holes one up, and at one stage in the second 18 Sadick had drawn level, but Lopes gradu ally forge ahead again, and Timately becanic dormie two. He won the 35th and the match, 3 and 1.
