ee, his drive being sliced to the brook |
|where he got a lie on the slaty bottom. He banged |
|out a high shot with his niblick, but went over the |
|green to the rough and was short on his return. |
|Sawyer was fifteen feet from the hole on his second |
|and won, 4-5. Sawyer 2 up. |
| |
|=Hole 6 (515 yds., par 5).= From the high sixth tee |
|Evans pulled a low drive to the trees. He made a |
|great out with his mashie, being lucky in escaping |
|the trees. Sawyer lined out two of his regulation |
|wooden shots and was twelve feet from the flag on |
|his second. Evans heeled his long mashie shot to the|
|right of the green, from which he missed his four |
|and conceded the hole, Sawyer being dead in 3. |
|Sawyer 3 up. |
| |
|=Hole 7 (310 yds., par 4).= Evans left his unruly |
|driver in the bag and played a cleek shot for the |
|seventh hole, Sawyer outdriving him forty yards. |
|Chick's pitch took a bad bound, but stopped eight |
|feet from the hole. Sawyer's pitch ran entirely |
|across the green. Evans's putt just trickled into |
|the cup, winning for him, 3-4. Sawyer 2 up. |
| |
|=Hole 8 (145 yds., par 3).= Both pitched to the |
|green. Sawyer putted dead and laid Evans a dead |
|stymie. In attempting the five-foot slanting putt, |
|Chick knocked Sawyer's ball into the hole, losing |
|2-4. Sawyer 3 up. |
| |
|=Hole 9 (435 yds., par 5).= Both got straight drives|
|into a driving wind at the long ninth. Two perfectly|
|played iron shots met with unmerited punishment, |
|both balls touching the top of the hill and running |
|over the fast green into a trap. Both missed rainbow|
|putts for fours and halved in 5. Sawyer 3 up at the |
|turn. |
