DAVIS CUP TENNIS
Australia’s Chances Good FORMER CHAMPION’S OPINION (By Telegraph —Press Association.) AUCKLAND, April 7. ‘ Our chances this year are better than they have been for a long time,” said Mr. Gerald Patterson, former tennis champion, when discussing Australia’s entry for the Davis Cup. He said that if Crawford struck form Australia’s chance of regaining the cup would be very good. It was not a one-man team, for Quist and McGrath, on present form, were almost as good as Crawford. Mr Patterson referred with regret to the death of Satoh who, he said, was probably the fourth greatest player Japan had produced. Mr. Patterson, who is on a business trip, will see most of the Australians’ matches in England.
