Country Club v. Kowloon

Double Programme: Men Playing At Sheungshiu: Women At Kowloon

→By "Birdie”)

THE FIRST of what is hoped will be annual or bi-annual fixtures-golf matches between the Country Club, Sheungshiu, and the Kowloon Golf Club-will take place this Sunday. It takes the form of a "double" for the men will be playing at Shoungshiu and the women at Kowloon.

Kowloon have raised a pretty formidable side, and on handicap figures should have better of their hosts, but offsetting this is the fact that Country Club players are at home and are far more familiar with the sand greens there.

It is because of this that the Country Club is looking forward keenly to the match, and, despite their opponents' strength, not without a little confidence. What with the sand greens, and the strangeness of the course, I should estimate that the Kow- loon players will find it difficult to play to within four. above their handicaps. Their highest men are 10.

The course is rather hard and fery at the moment, though the re- cent rain has done something towards softening it. Water, too, has made the sand greens softer and playable

again.

The men's calch commences with the singles in the morning and the fourballs after lunch. The

women.

at Kowloon, are also ten-a-side and are playing in the afternoon only, the rifle ranges being In use during

the morning.

The teams and starting times for
