TIENTSIN TENNIS.

KONG-DOUBLES WON BY FORMER HONGKONG, PLAYERS.

1

The Rumjahn Success. Despite the prophecy of "thone who know" that the hong doubles final would go to fivo sate, the great majority of spectators at the Tient- sin Tennis Club Courts had a hard job to keep that conviction after the first fow minutes of play, says the P. & T. Times. The K. M A. pair (O. and M. Ramjahn) were so ob viously better than Liddell Bros (Way and Reynell) that there did not scem any reason on earth' why they should take longer than three sots in which to win the trophy But in the end there was a releda, and the reason was Way.

This young player was regarded as one of Tientsin's best a couple of seasons ago, but he failed to justily the promiss he showed. This

final saw him return to his old form,

Liddells secured the. third set, and the fourth also went to them at 6-3, cach pair thus hav- ing scored an equal number of games in the four seta With Reynell play- ing a bit above his form, there then appeared something more than mere chance for Liddells to lift the trophy.
