GOLF TOURNAMENTS
CENTENNIAL ARRANGEMENTS. The draft programme for the Centennial Golf Tournaments has been approved by the New Zealand Goll Association, with the exception that the actual dates have yet to be confirmed. Auckland has been asked to accept October 23 and 24 and Christchurch November 2 and 3. Regarding prize money it was agreed that the prize for first professional should be approximately 70 per cent of the total for the event. Thus, based on £3OO at Auckland and at Christchurch the first professional would get £2OO (Auckland; however, hope to increase their total to £500). At Wellington the first professional ii the open will get £5OO and the winner of the Professional Championship £350, and winners of the Professional Foursomes £75 each. Thus, under this programme, it would be possible for a man to win £1325, with possibilities of more in thq event of Auckland prize money being increased over the £3OO minimum.
