Ho explained that he was under contract to Kirkwood, who was guaranteeing the tour. Sarazen said he could not afford to lose the guarantee. However, he came to play golf—not to fight. _ It is understood that Sarazen is keen to play in the Centenary championship. Kirkwood claims that he engaged Sarazen for a world tour, and he had not come specially for the championships.
