BRILLIANT YOUNG PLAYER
LEADS FIELD OF PROFESSIONALS LONDON, April 6. The newspapers emphasise the brilliance of King, who is twenty-two. He led the field of seventy-four professionals 'in the Roehampton £2OO tournament with two' rounds of 68, a record for the altered course. He might have done better in both rounds. He had a score of 29 for nine holes in the first round when he broke down, and had 26 for eight holes in the second round. Unfortunately he has little desire for golfing honours. The failure of the majority of prominent players to qualify was due to bad putting.
