NEWCOMER'S SUCCESS.
[BY SALADIN.)
The vistory of Thui Wai Pus over H.". Rumjang on Monday in the third round of the Open Singles Championship of the Colony hay given the event a great lip. When compotition started. 1 gar-marked the Taui Brothers as being the nort "promising among the now comers, so that it is very gratifying to see the elder qliminating one of the most experienced local players. Hearty congratulations to "the winner. who has, by his acessa, established himself among the leading eight of the Colony.
*
Monday's match produced an in- teresting, spectacular and exciting struggle. It bold the attention of the gallery right from the start, and although Taui held a slight ad vantage throughout," H. D. kept so close to him that a impse on the part of the Chinese would undoubtedly have proved fatal. In this nuspect the winner displayed fae match tom- pornment, which together with con- sistent stroke production, overcame the Indian's steadiness and expori-
Her.
Play reached a high standard for which Tani deserved the credit. Ho played a daring and enterprising game. Ho matched his opponent in steadiness, varied his. shots oppor. tunely and siezed opportunities to aituck, but what drew forth 'most. applause and admiration from the gallery was the way he retrieved deult, shots from difficult posi- tians-sometimes bringing off an acc outright Tsui also proved himselt to be an all-round player, which i factor more than any other con- tributed towards H.D.'s ultimate defeat. Another important factor was. H.D.'s inability to follow up his shots, which gave Taut freedom to hit as he pleased..
