LADY GOLFERS RETURN.
MISS KAY PItAISED.
Per Press Association
AUCKLAND, Sept. 18. The Tasman Cup, the symbol of supremacy in contests between the women golfers of New Zealand and Australia, reached Auckland to-day in charge of Mrs Guy Williams, the captain ot the team which defea.ted Australia at Melbourne in the first match for the cup. She expressed regret that, through the illness of the Australian pair, the contest resulted in an indecisive win. The performances of Misses Oliver Kay and B. Gaisford in the Australian championship rather startled Australian players and critics. In the qualifying 'round Miss Kay was no less than ten strokes better than her nearest opponent and J. Ferrier, who played with her in the mixed foursomes, said she played shots ax well as unv man. Her triumph over Aliss Hammond was a real triumph over gruelling conditions.
Mrs Williams said that Australia would send a team next year to play for the Kirk-Windeyer Cup.
