A.E. Davies Wins Captain's Cup! Competition At Kowloon G.C.

·

BRILLIANT RECORD FOR PORTSMOUTH PLAYER

(By "Birdie")

THE ROYAL NAVAL DOCKYARD is particularly fortunato in its golfers this year. What J. T. Smith has done at Fanling, A. E. Davies is doing at Kowloon, for since last writing of this latter player, when he annexed the Kowloon G.C. Club Championship from R. K. Collings, after turning four down, he has won the Captain's Cup. The final for this trophy was played on Sunday afternoon, and he boat T. Lamb (9) by 4 and 3.

This is the first occasion at Kowloon on which a player has won both the Club Championship and the Captain's Cup in the same year. In his possession now are the Coogan Cup (1939), the Junior Championship (1939), the St. John of Jerusalem Trophy, the Visitor's Cup at Fanling, the Club Championship and the Captain's Cup.

Davies is a Chlof Physical

Training Instructor in the Royal Naval Dockyard, and his Home Club is Portsmouth.

On Sunday, Davies won the first hole with a bogey fout, Lamb having driven into bunker to the right, and having put his approach shot into the flanking nullah. The 2nd was halved in four's.

The 3rd was also halved Davies conceded a stroke here, but Lumb was unfortunate to be styinted when three yards from the pln.

At the 4th, Davies put his spoon shot two yards from the pin, and souk for a birdle 2. Lamb hooked his drive into a bad spot, and became twa down. The 5th was halved in 4's.

Davies won the 6th in 3. He put his tee shot three yards from the pin. Lamb was off the green to the right, and was slightly too strong with his chip shot and falled to go down in three, The 7th was halved in 4'8.

At the 8th, Davies became 4 up. Lamb wus short with his approach, but laid a beautiful chip shot dead. Davies was near the edge for 2, but sank an extraordinary putt for n birdle three.

Lamb took the 9th with a perfect 4. Davicu drove into the bunker in

the right of the green, exploded over

and went down in five.
