DEFEAT OF DUNCAN.

AMERICAN'S GREAT PLAY.

in

far dBoraz W, GREENWOOD,}

GLENEAGLES, September 2nd. MacDonald Smith, the old Carenistie boy, now a naturalised American from San Francisco, defrated Duncan in the 72-holes international match on the King's course at Gleneagles to-day by d and 3. In ideal golfing conditions, with a little 51111 and scarcely any wind, and romantic surroundings, a crowd of be- tween 3,000 and 4,000 people witnessed a wonderful exhibition of golf on the part of the American. It was golf of the highest possible order-accurate driving without being excessively long, superb iron play, and miraculous putting. Ex. treme precision with every range of iron elab no doubt helped to make the putting man without the casier; even so, no smooth, rhythmical awing and the doli- cate touch of Smith could have hoped to hole many of the putts that the Ame rican seemed to coax inte the tin. For an opponent it was positively heart- Anything breaking in its consistency. within two yards of the pin was dead; everyone expected the ball to go in, and, as results proved, aone was the least bit surprised.

On the day's play Smith's putting aver age must have been well ander two per hole; the figure probably being 11. Con- sidering the enormous size of the grens, the circumstances, and the strain of the match, such an average of putts is no thing short of wonderful. As an indi cation of the American's consistent holing-out I may menting that in the last three holes played he had only one putt per green. No wonder Duncan, a little downhearted and much worried, prac. tically gave up the ghost was calcu lated to make any "man despair

WONDERFUL SMITH

During his visits to Great Britain Smith has demonstrated that he is one of the world's great golfers. Personally I should place bim among the first six. At Troon last year and at Hoylake this year in the British Championship he finished third in each occasion; to-day he excelled himself, and I should say that

Smith is 38 years of age, and two years younger than Duncan. Smith, who ser- ved in the American army during the war, is a teetotaller, but, unlike many of the famous American golfers. he is an inveterate cigarette smoker. In the crisis of a match he lights a cigarette, and be fore playing the shot throws the cigarette an to the ground, and sometimes forgets to pick it up again. He has avenged Hagen for the defeat in the recent inter- national four-ball match, and, like, Hagen, he goes back to America with the houours thick upon him.
