NEW GOLF RECORD: AT KIANGWAN

Fine Performance by Mr. J.B — Ferrier

During the week-end a new re cord was created for Kiangwan golf links. On Saturday afternoon, playing in the competition for the cup which was presented by his father in 1997, Mr. J. B. Ferrier did a 72. The course was at full length, all the tees being back to their farthest point. Conditions were by no means ideal for such a performance, for the grass on the greens has practically al} disappeared and their surface is as hard as can be, making putting at times a matter of extreme difficulty. Mr Ferrier's score was made up of the following Home—5 3355 43 3 536-72

The previous record was 73. It is of interest to record that notwithstanding the fact that Mr Ferrier has made a new record he is understood to have been beaten in the Ferrier Cup competition by a moderate handicap man.
