He defeated Old Man himself. He gave the tough old boy a sound drubbing, too seven strokes in the four rounds,| with never a round above par and! only one, the third, as high as par,| which is 73, Hits Better Than Others Curiously enough, in the third round Bobby was hitting his shots better than in any of the others. But the law of compensation had laid hold putter, and where he got 29 putts in his card of 68| for the first round, he needed 36, pr putts in the third round for his par! 73, thus for once compiling a par card with precisely the number of! putts prescribed by par.
