Golf Champion.
A. H. Padgham, the. British open golf champion, was not long in shoring his quality in South Africa, where he is touring with W. J. Cox, Abe* Mitchell and George Duncan. He won the Western Province open with 268, Cox being next with 284. To finish 16 strokes ahead of anybody else gives an indication of Padgham’s genius, says an Australian writer. It will be a thousand pifies if he turns "American," as he is reported to be contemplating. His successes have been so many and so brilliant that he may fairly be called the world’s best player, and there ought to be an excellent living for such a golfer in Britain. Incidentally, Australia would dearly like to get a look at Padgham.
