BLOW TO BOY GOLFER
DISQUALIFIED WHEN LEADING BY 14 STROKES The action of a spectator at the Northern boys’ golf championship, on the Royal Aberdeen course, resulted in the disqualification of J. Scott Riddell, Duff House, when he had a lead of 14 strokes over the field. During his second found, Riddell found his ball close to a gorse bush, and a spectator, without Riddell’s consent, uprooted part of the bush. Riddell was thus enabled to get a clear shot at his ball, and so the officials ruled him out of the competition.
