Gained In Two Months
He Learned To Fade!
(By "Birdio")
AFTER ALMOST TEN YEARS of striving for one of the four top prizes in the pro. golfor's bag-the U.S. and British Opens, the U.S.P.G.A. and Mastors Tournaments-in which period he was twice beaten in replays and once on the 38th hole, Craig Wood has won not one but two of the titles in as many months!
In April he won the Augusta Masters Tournament, and on Sunday he took first place in the U.S. Open.
His scores in the Open were 73, 71, 70=284, but a peculiar omission in the scores for the first 36 holes was his total of 144. Clayton Heafner and Dens- more Shute both had 144 and were listed at the top, but there

and Shute won the replay. Then in 1939, the American Opou slipped from his grasp when he tied with Byrer Nelson, and Nelson's name was inscribed on the roll of champions after the replay.
