Bromwich Misses His Chance
MIGHT HAVE WON SINGLES AND DOUBLES Received Sunday, 9.20 p.m. LONG BEACH (California), July 9. Missing Wimbledon has made John Bromwich keener than ever to beat Riggs if he meets him during the tour, thus proving his claim to the position of the world's number one player. The results from London depressed Bromwich who feels that he could have wou the singles championship and also with Quist the doubles. Bromwich’s team mates feel he should be sent to Wimbledon in 1940 and given a chance to fulfil his greatest ambition. American writers expressed surprise over his non-entry this year.
