1 GREAT LADY GOLFER

1199 WETHERED'S TRIUMPH.

[+xos "THE TIMES

CORRESPONDENT.

HUNSTANTON, October 13th Miss Wethered claimed her undeniabla right to-day when, for the third time in succession, she won the English Ladies" Golf Championshipčankam

Tinos must come when Miss Wethered will be beaten, bat for the moment there is nothing to discourage one from antici pating for her continual series of vio tories. It was remarked in the seobunts of the Ladies' Open Championship- this year that his Wethered and Miss Cecil Leitch occupied a position in contemporary ladies" golf as pre-eminent as that of Mr. Freddy Txit and Mr. John Ball in amateur golf, and the time has now come to supplement that opinion with the definite statement that Mins Wethered is a better player to-day than aver Miss Leitch was. Miss Leitch, through pluckily sticking to the game when the hould have been giving her injured arm s rest, is not able at the moment to falsify this opinion of their comparative merits, but-I maure that her absence has not affected the ultimate result of this Championship... Many different reasons are given by the spectators as they plod their way round the links watching Miss Wethered pile up hole, after hole on successive hopeless opponents as to what particular virtue it is that entitles her to so unique, a "position. Her temperament is perfect, and her conduct both in playing particular matches and in regard to her general attitude towards a big, meeting is ideal." Not for her is it to dash into the club house when she bar won malch tɔ run, her finger up and down the board to soo whom ste morts next and to obtain valueless estimats of her op ponent. She attacks the business more in the manner of Mr. John Ball, caring little whom she meats, and paying attention only to be on the teeing ground when her name is called. She is in fact, an carnest golfer, but never too earnest to be the most charming of opponents. From what I have seen of her play in this championship and I have seen bits of every round that she has played I am con- vinced that the secret of her continual success is built not so much on terrific length as on a wonderfully "sympathetic touch in her short game. If Miss Wether ed could have played that fatal chip shot for George Duncan on the 18th, green at Sandwich, there would have been a tie in the Open Championship, for the manner in which, she plays such a stroke is immaculate. Her putting, too, during this week must have been, a sheer delight even to those who have lost all faith in the putting powers of the golfers. of this country. People who talk about Miss Wethered playing brassy shots like Harry Vardon, am talking nonsense, but those who compare her putting with that of Hagen bave some fustification for their enthusiasm. As befits so great a champion she is modest to the extent of being almost mouselike, and she resembles her brother. in that she is almost impossible to pick out From the middle of the on-coming crowd, slipping cut almost apologetically to play her shot and fading back into the gallery until she is wanted again.

AUCE THE RUNNER UP.

Miss Stocker need have no shame that she was five holes down at Luncheon, for she held her own for a long time, and it was not until she found that the more likely she was to win a hole the more likely was Miss Wethered to play a superlative stroke that she showed signs of chopping her own game. .....

It was Miss Wethered who drew the first blood in winning the third hole in four to five, but Miss Stocker won the short fourth, where a bunker guarding the right-hand corner of the green seems to have held a magnetic attrac-. tion for her during the whole Meeting. The fifth was won by Miss Wethered, and she looked to have won the sixth, where she holed a beautiful putt of seven yards, bat Miss Stocker gallantly followed her with a pult of three yards for the half in three. The short seventh is perhaps the most entertaining hole on the links, for the green, which is short but broad, is guarded right up to its very edge, with Groken: sandhills, but Misa Wethered has realized that the correct side of the green to which to play is the left, and so she won that hole. The eighth and ninth were decorously halved, leaving Miss Wethered two up at the turn, baring gone out in 86. Grafias Wethered got another hole at the 11th, where Miss Stocker was bunkered off her second shot; but Miss Blocker came again at her at the 12th with a beautifully judged iron shot for her second stroke and a resultant three. The 18th is ever a strong player's, bole. Miss Wethered won it in four to fire, and she seemed to be gathering in a handsome luncheon lead when she also won the 14th. At the 15th, however, the hit her ap Frosch putt just too hard, and chlig Stocker, making the most of the glender, opportunities, which had been offered to | her, got back a hole. She looked vertain toʻregain yet: anɔlher at the 16thy where Miss Wethered holod, at nine-yard putt for a three when Mins Stocker was lying, dend in two, but the: 12th, war Mint Wethered'a all the way, and so was the 18th too,- AMASS Wethored was, therefore, froops at Inncheon, and the remilf seemed almost beyond doubt.landas nuke
