GOLF TOURNEY
CENTENARY FIXTURE
PROFESSIONAL SEMIFINALS
SHUTE AND DIEGEL WIN
(United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 10 p.m.) Sydney, November 23. The semi-finals of the Centenary professional golf championship were played to-day and resulted as follows:— D. Shute (America) defeated Craig Wood (America), 1 up. L. Diegel (America) defeated J. Ezar (America), 6 and 5. Shute played- well in the morning round, which he completed in 68, going to lunch 3 up on Wood. At the 15th Shute needed three fours to better his yesterday’s 66, but three putts at the 18th ended that hope. In the afternoon Wood played better and lowered the deficit, but too many halves prevented him from ever gaining the lead, notwithstanding a mighty drive of 320 yards at the 30th. Neither Diegel nor Ezar played well in the morning, both giving opportunities which were not accepted. The play was lamentable for such players. Diegel finished the round 2 up. In the afternoon Ezar lipped the hole with three putts, but made amends at the next hole by dropping a sensational 30-footer.
