Changes Made In Open Golf Championship

London, Apr. 2.
The Royal and Ancient Club has made two intoresting changes in the conditions for the Open championship, at St. Andrews, in the week beginning July 3. One is the award of a money prize of £20 to the player returning the best score in the two qualifying rounds. The prize will act as an incentive for the competitors to play their best in what hitherto has been a dull and lifeless affair.
