Britain.
"They gave him the cup on the
terrace of the Royal and Ancient
clubhouse this evening with all the
pat¥izrehs of golf yathered there.
The final between Jones and
Wethered, with 12,000 persons try
ing to see the shots, was the cli
max of a great week of golf in
fine bracing Scotch weather and
with enthusiastic galleries trailing
aver the famous links where putts
have been missed for 500 years.
Wethered was a worthy oppon
ent and a great sportsman. Al
thougl the tide was against him
alb ae way, he never seemed wor
or harrassed and played his
normal game, which was good,
bat not good enough.
ke s;zplayed 30 holes in two
un &;fa}ug and there is the story
ol 1930 British amateur final.
The former British Amateur
champion level for the first nine

holes, with each one under par.
Jones won five of the next seven
a great birdie at the 17th to win
holes and Wethered rallied with

‘v.‘%‘gd he had been five behind.
The Briton won the first hole
in the afternoon when the Ameri
can was stymied and seemed about
to win the second when Jones
Tade aefiaf his few bad drives of

¢ visitor, however, seemed al
ways to have a great shot in his
with ap iron good enough to place
Lag when needed and he recovered
fixfl in position to win the hole af
ter it seemed lost,
"‘“Wcthgfd reduced the lead to
three at the sixth but it was the
last chance he had against the ma

forced him to struggle to keep
within reasonable distance of his
opponent. In the afternoon his
lone game steadied, but his loose
play on the green ruined his
chances, and play ended on the
30th with a missed put by Weth

ight. . “Somehow or other, 1
!fimed to pull every ball off line,
“Bobby Jones is a great golfer
who may put any one off his driv
ing. . Every one does it, and I had
my i‘pse in the morning. But I
did *pot play so badly and would
have won from many other golfer.
All day Jones drove magnificent
ly and 1 envy him his long game
and his fine touch on the greens.”
s.#F was lucky to win,” was Bob
by's comment.
~Jones’ victory was popular with
the Scots. They swarmed after
hig shouts and climbed on each
ather’s shoulders. - Many placed
their youngsters on their heads
and had the story of the putting
relaved.
When the finish came, the
crowds ‘engulfed Bobby like wild
tribesmen, half a dozen Scotch
Bobbies rescued him and escorted
him back to the clubhouse, more
