GOLF.
MITCHELL’S LONG DRIVING. KIRKWOOD DISAPPOINTED By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London. June 12. Kirkwood, interviewed, frankly admitted that he was disappointed by his defeat. Ho said; “The Englishman was too good for me. His long driving beat me at five holes.” Down wind Mitchell drove 350 yards, outdistancing Kirkwood nearly 100 yards, yet the Australian’s score at the end of the first round was 74 to 71, so Kirkwood's golf was as good as ever. Mitchell's present form, however, puts him ahead of all rivals. Directly the match was over Kirkwood motored to St. Andrews to prepare for the championship.
