4 A. D. S. DUNCAN, WELLINGTON CLUB CHAMPION. Time and again A. D. 8. Duncan has been seriously challenged for the championship, of the Wellington Golf Club,* but he has always accounted for Ifis opponents with, something to spare. The final match for the Wellington Club’s title was very closely contested over the week-end, between John Duncan and the former champion, the players being all square at tho ninth, in the second round of the 36 holes. John Duncan’s card for the first 18 holes was 76, against A. D. 8. Duncan’s 78, but the afternoon round took John Duncan 79 to his opponent’s- 74. Both have played better golf recently in less favourable weather. At the end of the match, as he has so ofFdff lions before, tho veteran came to light with superb golf, and, winning tho tenth and eleventh in 4, halving the twelfth in 5, winning tho thirteenth in 3, halving the fourteenth in 4, and winning the fifteenth, onco again became the holder of the title.
