In the match' in which Turner and McKenzie opposed John Kennell and Moore the last-named played the tee short at two consecutive holes. By the rulers of golf, his side should have been penalised by the loss of the hole, but McKenzie and Turner did not claim the hole, and the referee failed to take cognisance of the point. Moore and Kennell continued to drive in the wrong order to the end of the match.
