Match Play Titles

Although Freyberg Rosebowl player Jim Morgan (Blenheim) won the Nelson provincial match play title at Tahuna during Labour weekend, the championship was really a triumph for youngster Ken Jones, a 15-year-old from Nelson with a terrific future ahead of him, Morgan, a scratch golfer, beat Jones 4 and 3 in the final. A field of 103 took part in the championships. The women's section was won by Mrs F. Rowling (Motueka) who beat Mrs R. A. Mace in the final.
