S. open championship at Worces- ter in the summer of 1925. Yet Willie usually does some- thing startling when he feels in| the right mood. He was in this irame of mind and game at Mi- ami when he single-handed shot Mhimself and Wiffy Cox to victory over Gene Sarazen and Johnny Farrell in the four-ball champion- ship tournament. MacFarlane, who looks more like a school teacher than a profes- sional golfer, is capable of extra- geing 20 over the Miami course recalls the spurt he made at Wor- cester, a nine-hole 31 that enabled 4y ALAN GOULD ~ “S5585naess ordinary scoring flights.
