Unusual Style Of Amateur Golf Champion
Gives Superb Display In Match Against Young James Bruen
London, June 4,
"Did the best man win the Amateur Championship?" is a question that has been repeatedly asked since Alexan- der Kyle's victory at Hoylake, a week ago. The simple answer is that he beat James Bruen, the Irish youth, the strongest favourite for the title since the spacious days of R. T. Jones. Moreover, on the same day Kyle went on to defeat W. Holt, the last of the Americans, and on form the best of them, not even excepting Yates, the deposed champion. Kyle thus reaped a just reward for what, un- doubtedly, was the outstanding achievement of the cham- trophy, pionship.
