WEST COAST CHAMPIONSHIPS. (Pee United Press Association.) WESTPORT, August 20. The finals in the West Coast golf championships were played to-day with fine weather in the morning, but rain in the, afternoon. The men’s championship was won by A. K. Smith, the holder (Grcymoulh), from T. Park (Westport) 4 up and 3 to play. The ladies’ championship was won by Mrs Hannan (Greymouth) from Mrs Walker (Westport) 3 up and 2 to play. ROTORUA TOURNAMENT. (Per United Press Association.) ROTORUA, August 26. The Rotorua Golf Club’s open tournament was concluded to-day in ideal golfing weather. G. Tallis (Titirangi) defeated F. Fryer (Napier) 6 and 5 in the open championship. Both the finalists were patchy in the morning round, but Tallis improved in the afternoon and played excellent golf. Fryer was unlucky at some of the holes, but was inconsistent and unreliable on the green. He consistently outdrove Tallis, but the latter was much more consistent in the short work. The Thermal Cup was also won by a Titirangi player, L. F. Murray, who beat G. Napier (Whakatanc) live and four. The tournament will be followed by the annual New Zealand veterans’ tourney, which will be opened on Monday.
